• 2 teaspoons olive oil
• 10 ounces fluke

• 1 small clove garlic
• 1 or 2 sprigs fresh basil to equal 1 tablespoon chopped

• A few shakes of salt
• Freshly ground black pepper

Heat a large nonstick pan until hot; reduce heat to medium-high, and add the 2 teaspoons of olive oil.

Wash and dry fish, and saute it on each side until it begins to take on a little color. Cook one or two minutes at most.

Remove pan from heat, spoon 1 tablespoon of vinegar over fish, and set aside.

Wash and mince scallions; mince garlic; wash, dry and chop basil. Place ingredients in a flat dish large enough to hold fish, and mix with remaining 2 teaspoons vinegar.
