Ingredients

  • 4 fillets corvina 5 - 6 ounces each
  • 4 tbsp. unsalted butter softened
  • 2 tbsp. scallions sliced
  • 2 tbsp. fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 1/2 tsp. fresh thyme leaves only
  • 1 tsp. kosher salt I use Diamond Crystals
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Make compound butter
  • In a small bowl, using a rubber spatula, combine softened butter with sliced scallions, chopped parsley, thyme leaves and a pinch of salt and pepper. Fold and lightly mash herbs into butter until it is fairly uniform.
  • Use the rubber spatula to scrape the butter out of the bowl and place it on a piece of parchment paper.
  • Form into a log, roll up and freeze for 10 minutes.
  • Prepare corvina
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Season both sides of the corvina with remaining salt and pepper.
  • Slice a 1/4" thick piece of compound butter and place on top of fish.
  • Bake for 16 minutes (up to 18 minutes for thick fillets).
  • Remove from oven and cool on sheet pan.

Notes

• Spread the herbs across the top of the fish after it has cooled for a few minutes.
• Top with additional fresh herbs or compound butter, if desired.
