Cooking Steps

1
  • Remove smooth dory fillets from packaging and pat dry with paper towel.
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • When oil is hot, cook fish in batches until just cooked through, 5-6 minutes each side.
  • In the last minute of cook time, sprinkle over lemon pepper seasoning, gently turning fish to coat.

TIP: White fish is cooked through when the centre turns from translucent to white.
TIP: Add extra oil between batches if needed so the fish doesn't stick to the pan.

2
  • Meanwhile, slice tomato into thin wedges.
  • Roughly chop cucumber.
  • Drain and rinse lentils.
3
  • In a large bowl, combine basil pesto with a drizzle of olive oil and vinegar. Add mixed salad leaves, drained lentils, tomato and cucumber. Toss to coat and season to taste.
4
  • Divide pesto lentil salad between bowls. Top with zesty dory. Enjoy!
