Super Easy
Ingredients
1 John Dory fillet or similar white fish
1 tbs plain flour
50g cold, unsalted butter
1 lemon
1/2 cup frozen peas
Method
Step 1. Blanch the peas briefly in boiling water. Drain and set aside to serve.
Step 2. Dust the fish lightly with flour and season with salt. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side in a hot pan with olive oil. Place the fish on a warm serving plate and scatter the peas around.
Step 3. Return the pan to a low heat, add the butter to the pan. When it is just browning and beginning to foam, squeeze the lemon into the pan and swirl to emulsify. Pour the sauce straight over the fish and peas, enjoy.

This dish screams summer. It pops with flavour and freshness that you want on a warm summer day cooking on the BBQ (or in this case the outdoor teppanyaki plate!). Prawns work perfectly here but you could mix it up with large chunks or white fish, squid, baby octopus or even crab or bugs!
