  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or runny honey

  4. While vegetables are roasting, pat fish dry with paper towels and remove any remaining scales or bones. Cut any larger fillets in half and season with salt. Mix second measure of thyme, lemon zest and olive oil together in a small bowl. Gently press mixture over both sides of fish to coat.
  5. When veggies have 5 minutes cook time remaining, heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat. Add butter to pan and cook fish for 1-2 minutes each side, until cooked through. In the last 30 seconds squeeze first measure of lemon juice over (if using).
