Keith served it with sauteed mustard greens, and I think a nice pilaf would go well, too.

Note: youll notice that in this recipe youll need to work quickly to get each fillet pan seared and out of the pan and onto the sheet without overcooking and into the oven, so make sure youve got all your ingredients ready to go beforehand.

:) Its good if you can quickly begin the sauce while the fish is in the oven, pull out the fish, finish the sauce, and plate the dish all within a few minutes.
