Roasted Fish With Brown Butter Corn

Step 1

Preheat oven to 500 degrees. Season fillets with salt and pepper and place in a baking pan, skin-side down.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mash together the butter, about two-thirds of the garlic, and the lemon zest if using. Smear on top of fish fillets. Roast until cooked through to taste, 7 to 12 minutes depending upon variety of fish and thickness of fillets.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a blender or food processor, purée half the brown buttered corn with broth or water, oil, lemon juice and remaining garlic. Stir in remaining corn. Serve sauce over fish, garnished with herbs.
