To come up with a succulent, well-browned, thick-cut fish fillet recipe, we sprinkled the fillets with sugar before sautéing. This simple step accelerated caramelization, allowing the fish to develop a good crust before its interior had a chance to dry out. Transferring the browned fillets to the oven to roast just until their centers were a touch translucent provided the perfect finish to this simple, juicy fish fillet recipe.
If the olives are marinated, rinse and drain them before chopping.
