I made a few adjustments, but I think this recipe really has a lot going for it. The 12 oz of fish is really a small serving among 4 people - I used a 12 oz swai fillet for the two of us. I reduced the fennel to 1/2 tsp as I felt it would be too strong for Mr. Grumpy and might up it next time - it was a really nice touch and about the right amount. We are having a heat wave and I could not face heating the oven so I did this in the skillet. I used just a touch of oil to cook the fillets on one side, flipped. added the mustard and pepper (no salt), then the capers and wine. I used dry vermouth. The capers add enough salt for us. This cooked really quickly and did not heat up the kitchen as much as would have the oven.2Reply
