Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
2 rockfish fillets
Mix salt, pepper, and garlic powder to lightly season each fillet ( I used Old Bay Seasoning as my salt)
3 T. butter
1/2 T. olive oil
4 sprigs fresh dill
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 sprigs fresh thyme
Garnish:
2 sprigs fresh dill
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 slices of lemon
Directions:
Directions:
1. Lightly season the fish on one side with salt, pepper, and a teensy bit of garlic powder.
2 Melt butter and olive oil in a large skillet on medium heat. Add rosemary, thyme and dill to the butter as it melts to help infuse a little fresh herb flavor. Add the fish to skillet, and place the herbs on top of each piece while they cook (takes about 3-4 minutes to pan-sear the bottom of the fish to a golden brown color). Transfer herbs to side of skillet, and carefully turn fish to the other side, and continue cooking. While the fish cooks, spoon some of the melted butter over the pieces of fish. After spooning butter over fish, place the herbs back on top, and continue cooking fish approximately 3-4 additional minutes until done, and fish flakes easily.
3. Transfer fish to individual serving plates (I used two spatulas so the long fillets wouldn't break in the middle). Garnish each fillet with two lemon slices and a fresh sprig of rosemary and dill, if desired (they make the fish look really nice on the plate!). Serve, and enjoy!

Can't find rockfish? You can use any fish. I have used whatever I've had available.
