First, pat the fish dry with a paper towel. Remove as much moisture as possible to ensure you get a good sear in the pan. (Optional: Portion the fish into individual servings/filets)
Lightly season with pepper and salt.
Heat a very thin layer of avocado oil in a non-stick skillet on medium-high.
Test the pan's readiness by dropping a few droplets of water in. It should sizzle upon impact.
Place the fish in the skillet skin side down. If skinless, choose either side.
Sear for 4-5 minutes, and then flip. On the seared side, you should see some crispiness and golden skin forming.
The second side will need less time, plan on 2-3 minutes before checking doneness.
Start to test the doneness of the fish by using a fork to see if the flesh flakes easily. Once it does, remove from the skillet.
Using the same skillet, reduce heat to low and add wine. Scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any crusty bits left from searing the fish.
Bring to a simmer for 2-3 minutes and allow the wine to reduce by about ½.
Add the cream and fresh herbs.
Taste, add salt and pepper if needed.
Drizzle cream sauce over fish and serve warm.
