How to Make Monkfish With Curry Oil

  1. Pat monkfish fillets dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add monkfish fillets to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  4. Reduce heat to medium. Using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  5. Add curry powder to the skillet and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
  6. Pour in green tea, honey, and cayenne pepper. Bring to a simmer, stirring to combine.
  7. Return monkfish to the skillet. Reduce heat to low, and gently simmer for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and coats the fish.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  9. Serve immediately over rice or with a side of steamed vegetables.
