Ingredients: 2 branzino fillets (6 oz each) or 2 whole small branzino, scaled & gutted; 1 cup pitted green olives; 2 tbsp capers, drained; 1 clove garlic, minced; 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided; 1 tbsp lemon juice; 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped; 2 lemons, halved; 4 cups summer greens (arugula, spinach, or mixed); salt & black pepper; 2 tsp unsalted butter

Whole branzino or thick fillets get a golden crust in a hot skillet, then finish in the oven. Green olive tapenade adds briney punch; charred lemon halves and sautéed greens complete the plate. Restaurant-quality with zero fuss.
