How to Make Pan Seared Fish With Mushrooms And Scallions

  1. Season both sides of a 6-ounce fish fillet (cod, snapper, or halibut work well) with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Lightly coat the fish fillet in 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the fish in the hot oil and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
  5. Remove the fish from the pan and set aside.
  6. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in the same skillet over medium heat.
  7. Add 8 ounces of sliced mushrooms and 2 cloves of minced garlic. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms have released their liquid and it begins to evaporate.
  8. Add 2 tablespoons of chopped scallions and toss to combine. Cook for 1 minute.
  9. Stir in 1 tablespoon of dry sherry (optional) and 1/4 cup of roasted cashews.
  10. Serve the pan-seared fish over cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with additional scallions, if desired.
