Crispy Branzino Skin Cigars with Roasted Red Pepper Mousse & Black Olive Oil

Name: Crispy Branzino Skin Cigars with Roasted Red Pepper Mousse & Black Olive Oil
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 13 min
Total time: 28 min
Yield: 2 servings
Ingredients: 1 whole branzino (10–12 oz), filleted; skin reserved; 2 roasted red peppers (jarred, drained); 1/4 cup crème fraîche; 1 tsp smoked paprika; 1/2 tsp sherry vinegar; Sea salt & white pepper; 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil; 2 tbsp black olive oil; 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced; 2 tbsp capers, patted dry; 1 tbsp fleur de sel for finishing; Fresh dill fronds for garnish

Branzino skin is crisped until it shatters like glass, then rolled around a silky roasted red pepper mousse infused with smoked paprika, topped with crispy fried capers, and drizzled with black olive oil and charred garlic oil. It's a textural and flavor revelation: crispy-creamy-briny-smoky all in one delicate bite.
