With “Athenian sauce,” seasoned fish with a Greek flair is pan-fried. Any fish species may be used. The fact that the fish and sauce are cooked separately is essential to this dish’s success. Over rice or spaghetti, serve.

Reviews
This made a wonderful addition to a Saturday morning pre-booze cruise brunch! Our liquor store doesn’t carry pear liquor, so I had to call an audible and subbed pineapple vodka. Served in a champagne flute, these drunken berries were quite a hit for soon to be drunken guests. THANKS for the recipe, angela!
