Need a quick baked white fish recipe - look no further! This White Fish with Tomato Basil White Beans is absolute perfection and a very easy way to cook fish!
Combine olive oil, garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, tomatoes and their juices, and white beans in a small bowl. Set aside to marinate while cooking the fish
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Pat the fish dry and liberally season with salt and pepper, and pan-fry on each side for about 4-6 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the butter to the skillet and melt. Add the tomato white bean mixture over medium high heat and bring to a saute, add the splash of wine and let the alcohol cook off. Reduce to a low simmer – the sauce should start to thicken. Season with salt and pepper. Once thickened, nestle the fish back in and spoon some of the sauce over top of the fish and serve. Garnish with plenty of grated parm and a squeeze of lemon.
Notes
White beans are often called Navy beans or cannellini beans.
