Cut the fillets into pieces weighing approximately 200g each
Step 3
Place the fillets in a saucepan and cover them with Bertolli Extra Light EVOO, cooking them on low heat for approximately 6 minutes. (Use a metal skewer to see if the fillets are cooked all the way through. The skewer should run through them with no resistance when they are completely cooked.)
Step 4
Remove the fillets from the oil and set aside.

For the sauce:
Heat 20ml of water and add the saffron, so that the water gradually takes on a yellow color.
Step 6

Step 7
Finally, add the saffron water and salt to taste.
