Instructions

1
Preheat a nonstick skillet to medium-high.

Add 1 tablespoon of butter and spoon the butter over the fish for about 1 minute.
6
Add the white wine to the butter and continue to spoon.
7
Flip the sablefish over and continue to simmer until liquid is reduced by half.
8
Remove the fish from the pan to rest when it has a little firmness and the meat begins to separate.

Add remaining butter, the lemon juice, and herbs, and whisk to combine for a creamy wine sauce.
