  • 1 cup fresh basil
  • ¼ cup fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 large garlic clove

  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 4 (6-to 8-oz) sea trout, bluefish, or mackerel

Finely chop basil, parsley, and garlic together in a blender.  Add 3 tablespoons oil and puree, then blend in water, lemon juice, and pepper to taste.  If desired, thin with more water.
