Preparation

Once the oil is hot, place three of the fish fillets in the pan and sear until the fish is just done, about 1 ½ minutes per side. Transfer the fish onto a plate. Add 2 more tablespoons of oil into the skillet and repeat cooking the remaining fillets. Transfer the cooked fish fillets onto a serving plate and sprinkle with the juice of 1 lemon.
