Pan-roasted Opah with Lemon-Miso-Honey Sauce

Ingredients
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Opah fillets (4-6 oz)
a pinch each of good quality sea salt and freshly ground pepper
---
1 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp white miso paste
Juice of 1 medium lemon
1 Tbsp local honey
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
1 Tbsp cream (optional)
salt to taste
2 Tbsp chopped cilantro
Directions
Pre-heat oven to 400.

Heat a medium oven-proof saute pan over medium-high heat and add oil. Lightly salt and pepper fillets and cook one side over medium heat about 4 min or until seared.  Transfer to oven and cook 5-10 min until done depending on thickness of fillets.

Meanwhile melt butter in a small sauce pan or skillet over medium-low heat. Add miso, lemon juice and honey and stir until blended, reduce heat to low and cook sauce for 5 minutes. Add pepper, cream if desired and chopped cilantro. Serve over fish, garnish with additional cilantro leaves and lemon wedges.
