Switch a couple of words around in this title, and you've got an exciting action film where a fish is chasing a mayonnaise sauce… but maybe we should leave our artistic extracurriculars to ourselves. We'll use our words to tell you that the fish here is delicate, the sauce an amazing combination of tart lemon, beautifully salty capers, and herbaceous parsley, and the fried artichokes are divine. As for the fish film, we've already booked our tickets to Hollywood; surefire box office! Tip: Easier way to mince parsley? Gather them all in one hand and lay on the cutting board. Use your knife in rocking motion to cut, then turn 90 degrees and repeat until the herbs are properly minced!
