Garlic Basil Barramundi Skillet With Tomato Butter Sauce Recipe

comment icon 213 more comments Now listen – a tomato-butter sauce situation bubbling gently on the stove, and yes, thanks for asking, it is as absolutely luscious as it sounds x10. You should know that it’s also studded with white beans a quick pinch of grated parmesan, and served atop tender, flaky, flavorful barramundi (THE ULTIMATE SUSTAINABLE AND TASTY WHITE FISH WHICH WE LOVE). Wows. These are seriously exciting food times.

Confession About Fish

I am the kind of person who knows they want to buy more sustainable fish, but doesn’t always know how to do that. The Typical Scene: me, standing in front of the seafood freezer at the grocery store, rifling through packages of frozen fish and seafood with a permanent deer-in-the-headlights look. WHAT TO BUY. DON’T UNDERSTAND. MUST GET FOOD IN BELLY NOW. This is not ideal and usually leads to an open bag of chips riding home in the front seat of the car which then leads to scrapped dinner plans for said seafood. Which is why now I’m going to tell you how to buy sustainable, delicious fish that will give you the stars in your eyes thing without making you drive to the special-seafood-people store halfway across town, or study a chart, or generally be anything more than a regular person who loves food. That’s what barramundi does, friends. And you can find out a whole lot more right here.

Okay, Back To The Recipe

If you guys are digging summer as much as I am, then this has our names written all over it. Fresh tomatoes, spicy garlic, delicate green basil, and that pan-fried white fish / barramundi served with the white bean tomato butter sauce that is literally my favorite sauce texture ever. It’s like a tomato butter GRAVY and it is divine. You could serve this in a bowl, like I do with 99% of the foods in my life, or you could get fancy and serve it with a green salad and a little bread. The bread? This sauce? The sopping action that would ensue? You would become your own best friend. You would win the hearts of millions. You would probably actually bring about world peace. The end.
