4 Fish fillets (about 6 oz.
each), rinsed and dried
Salt and freshly ground
pepper, to taste
1-½ Teaspoon Olive
oil
1 Teaspoon Butter
For the Pesto:
Into the blender (or food
processor) go the cilantro, oil and garlic. Pulse
until mixture is smooth.
Add the tomato and pulse just a few times -- the
mixture should be chunky.
Put the cilantro mixture
in a bowl, and mix in the orange juice, vinegar
salt and pine nuts. Set
aside until ready to serve.
The pesto is best if made
just before you prepare the fish. In any case, it
should be served at room
temperature.
For the Fish:
Sprinkle the fish fillets
on both sides with salt and pepper. Over medium
heat, melt the oil and butter
in a large non-stick skillet. Add the fillets,
and cook about 3 minutes
on each side until they are opaque throughout.
Serve fillets topped with a spoonful of pesto.
