Preparation

In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice and coriander. Place fillets in bowl and cover with marinade. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in refrigerator for 2 hours.

Separate Belgian endive leaves and cut into narrow strips. In a frying pan, sauté strips in butter over very low heat 4 to 5 minutes. Add a pinch of sugar and season with salt and pepper. Set aside on a plate.

Remove fillets from marinade and sear in the same pan. Cook until tender and nicely coloured on the outside, 2 to 4 minutes on each side depending on its thickness, then season with salt and pepper.

Warm Havarti garlic butter. Divide endive strips among 4 plates and place fillets on strips. Drizzle with Havarti garlic butter and garnish with a few coriander leaves.

Havarti Garlic Butter:

Mix all ingredients, then season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
