Pan-Seared Sea Bream with Lemon-Herb Farrotto and Braised Zucchini with Mint

Pan-Seared Sea Bream with Lemon-Herb Farrotto and Braised Zucchini with Mint

Ingredients (Serves 4)

Sea Bream Fillet160 g
Farro80 g
Vegetable Broth200 ml
White Wine25 ml
Shallot15 g
Garlic5 g
Lemon10 ml
Fresh Parsley3 g
Fresh Thyme2 g
Zucchini120 g
Fresh Mint3 g
Olive Oil10 ml
Salt1 g
Black Pepper1 g

Instructions

1
Heat 10ml olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add minced shallot and cook until softened (2 minutes). Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add farro and stir for 1 minute. Deglaze with white wine, scraping up any browned bits.
2
Gradually add vegetable broth, about 120ml at a time, stirring frequently and allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding the next, until farro is tender but still has a slight bite (approx. 8-10 minutes for quick-cook farro; ensure you use quick-cook or pre-soaked farro for time constraint). Stir in half of the chopped fresh parsley, thyme, and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
3
While farrotto cooks, prepare zucchini: Slice zucchini into 1 cm thick rounds. Heat 10ml olive oil in a separate pan over medium heat. Add zucchini and braise for 4-5 minutes per side until tender and lightly browned. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in chopped fresh mint.
4
Pat sea bream fillets very dry. Season generously with salt and black pepper. Heat remaining 20ml olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place fish skin-side down and sear for 3-4 minutes until skin is crispy and golden. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes until cooked through.
5
Serve immediately: Spoon a generous portion of lemon-herb farrotto onto each plate. Top with a pan-seared sea bream fillet. Arrange the braised zucchini with mint alongside. Garnish with a fresh lemon wedge and a sprinkle of fresh parsley.
