Crisp-skinned barramundi with lemon butter and charred broccolini — **TooGut pick**Flexible, practical, genuinely delicious.

Barramundi rewards restraint. Dry the skin, leave it alone in a hot pan and build the sauce only after the fish is resting.

One step at a time

Let’s cook.

Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Dry the skin

Pat the fish very dry, season both sides and heat a wide heavy pan.

Char the broccolini

Cook broccolini in olive oil over medium-high heat for 5 to 6 minutes, turning only when dark patches appear.

Cook skin-side down

Place fish skin-side down and press for 20 seconds. Cook untouched for 5 to 7 minutes until crisp, then turn for 1 to 2 minutes.

Make the sharp butter

Rest fish skin-side up. Brown butter lightly with capers, remove from heat and add lemon. Spoon over fish and broccolini with parsley.
