Ingredients

30ml olive oil
4 x 200g kingfish fillets

20g butter, chopped

White Bean Salad

400g can cannellini beans, drained, rinsed
1/4 cup chopped

flat-leaf parsley

French Dressing

50ml red wine vinegar
25g Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper, to taste

150ml vegetable oil

Sauce

300ml brown chicken stock
30g butter, chopped

Method

1 To make French dressing, whisk vinegar, mustard and salt and pepper in a bowl. Whisk in oil very slowly until you have an emulsion.

2 To make salad, combine beans and parsley in a bowl. Add enough French dressing to moisten the beans. Set aside.

3 To make the sauce, pour stock into a medium saucepan. Bring to boil and boil until reduced to a sauce consistency, then whisk in the butter until combined.

4 Preheat oven to 180C.

5 Heat oil in a large ovenproof frying pan on a medium heat. Add fish, skin-side down, to pan. Cook for about 4 minutes, or until golden brown. Add butter to pan. Turn fish over.

6 Transfer frying pan to oven. Cook fish for about 5 minutes, or until tender.

7 To serve, place bean salad in a metal ring in the middle of each serving plate. Remove ring. Pour sauce all around the beans, then finish by placing fish fillets on top of beans.
