Method

Prep 18 min · Cook 12 min

1

Pull the triggerfish from the fridge 30 minutes ahead and pat it bone-dry, then season it hard with salt and pepper.

2

Get a cast-iron skillet ripping hot with a film of oil until it just begins to smoke.

3

Sear the triggerfish without moving it until a deep crust forms, then flip and add butter, garlic, and thyme.

4

Baste with the foaming butter to your target temperature, pulling it a few degrees early for the rest.

5

Rest the meat loosely tented for ten minutes, then slice against the grain and serve and grilled asparagus.
