Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Cut, clean and scale the fish and season with salt and pepper inside and out. Shell the peas and set aside. In a saute pan large enough to hold the fish, heat the olive oil until smoking.
Place the fish in the pan and shake vigorously.
Saute 2 or 3 minutes, until the fish starts to crisp on the first side, and the flip it over.
Add the garlic and place in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the fish is just cooked through.
Remove and place the pan on the burner and remove the fish to a service platter.
Add the peas, scallions and white wine to the pan and saute 1 minute.
Add the mint leaves and immediately pour the sauce over the fish.
Serve with some grilled yellow squash and portion tableside.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish can be paired with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. One wine you could try is Skyfall Pinot Gris. It has 4.8 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.
Skyfall Pinot Gris
Pale straw in color with notes of mango, citrus blossom and banana in the nose. On the palate a medley of tropical fruit unfolds into tangerine, mango, grapefruit, and banana flavors. These tropical notes continue throughout the long and lingering finish.
