Opah is one of my favorite fish to cook, but one that is not well known. It is like a tuna texture with mild flavor and a beautiful pink color. If you can get your hands on some, I recommend trying it out. One of my favorite ways to prepare it is pan searing it and cooking it medium rare. Here I served it with a warm nicoise salad and it made a great lunch!
