Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
4 striped bass fillets (6 ounces each)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
1/2 bunch thyme sprigs

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
In a large ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the fish liberally with salt and pepper and sprinkle with the lemon zest and juice. Once the oil begins to shimmer, place the fillets skin-side-down in the pan and let them cook, without moving them, until the skin is crisp and golden brown, 45 seconds to 1 minute. Give a light push to loosen the skin from the pan. Add the thyme sprigs to the pan. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove fish from the oven and transfer to paper towels.
