Sea Bream with Thyme and Candied Dragon Fruit

INGREDIENTS

Sea bream fillets – 4 pieces (150 g each)
Unsalted butter – 4 tablespoons
Fresh peach, thinly sliced – 2 large pieces
Ripe plums, cut into wedges – 4 pieces
Dragon fruit (white or red), cubes – 1 large piece
Fresh thyme sprigs – 4 sprigs
Sea salt – To taste
Freshly ground black pepper – To taste
Olive oil – 2 tablespoons

Instructions

1. Prepare the fish:
– Pat the fillets dry with paper towels.
– Season with salt and pepper on both sides.

2. Sear the fish:
– In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
– Place the fillets skin side down and cook for 2–3 minutes until crispy.
– Flip the fillets and add the butter and thyme, basting with the melted butter for 2–3 more minutes until cooked through but still juicy.

3. Sauté the fruit:
– Remove the fish and, in the same skillet, add the dragon fruit, peach, and plum.
– Cook for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden, making sure they keep their shape.

4. Plate assembly:
– Place a fillet in the center of each plate.
– Arrange the peach slices, plum wedges, and dragon fruit slices around it.
– Drizzle with the skillet butter and garnish with fresh thyme leaves

Chef’s Tips

– Try with salmon or red snapper: their firm, juicy white flesh pairs perfectly with sweet and tangy fruits.
