Ingredients

Fresh basil leaves - 17.6 oz
Olive Oil - 2 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

In a large skillet, pour a few tablespoons of water and place over medium heat. Add half of the spinach and stir with two wooden spoons until it becomes soft, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining leaves, stir, and cook for a while, ensuring the spinach retains its color. Transfer to a colander set over a bowl.

Step 2

Wipe the skillet and add 1 tablespoon of oil. Place over medium heat. Season the fish with salt and pepper and place it in the heated skillet. Cook until golden brown for 3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until done. Transfer to plates.

Step 3

Wash the skillet, dry it, and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add finely chopped shallot, half of the olives, and raisins. Cook for 1 minute, then add the spinach, mix well, and cook for another minute. Season with salt and pepper and pile onto plates next to the fish.
