Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place bananas 4 inches below the broiler and grill 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until lightly brown. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Season the fillets with Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, salt and white pepper. Dip them in the flour, then the egg wash.

  3. Step 3

    Meanwhile, heat the clarified margarine or vegetable oil in a skillet. Place fillets in skillet, saute one side until lightly brown, about 2 to 3 minutes, then turn them over and saute slowly until fish is cooked, about 3 to 5 additional minutes or more, depending on the size of the fillets.

  4. Step 4

    When the fillets are done, remove them to a serving platter. Top each fillet with some of the tomato concasse, then with a few slices of sauteed bananas.

  5. Step 5

    Wipe out skillet, quickly melt the stick of butter, remove from heat and add remaining lemon juice and chopped parsley. Shake or whisk to combine and pour over servings.

Tip
  • Chef Andre Mueller of Marker 88 on Islamorada in the Keys prepares this recipe with whatever is fresh, so you can use pompano, snapper, dolphin fish (mahi-mahi), yellowtail or grouper.
