Pat the skin of the sea bass dry with kitchen paper and season with salt on both sides.

3

Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over a high heat, then place the fish skin-side down and cook for 3 mins until the skin is crisp.

4

Flip the fish and add the butter, wine, lemon zest and a splash of lemon juice to the pan.

5

Cook for another 2 mins, then remove the fish and set aside.

6

Add the remaining ingredients to the pan and cook on a high heat for 2 mins, stirring occasionally.

Season to taste, adding a splash more lemon juice if needed.

Drizzle the buttery sultana salsa over the sea bass, serve with a generous dollop of kale pesto and crispy new potatoes or salad.
