How to Perfectly Pan Sear Fish

Enjoy crispy pan-seared fish at home with this how-to guide by Chef Nicole Gaffney of ColeyCooks.com.

Coley's Key Takeaways

+ A well-seasoned cast iron skillet is highly recommended for the job.
+ Heat the pan on high and use a little olive oil.
+ If you're using a fish with skin, place the skin side down first.

Optional: pre-score the skin to prevent curling, but you can remedy this by gently pressing down on piece with a fish spatula.
