5	Repeat process with remaining fish.
6	(note from me: let fish stand for approximately 15 minutes before proceeding).
7	Melt butter with oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat.
8	Add fish and cook until crust is golden brown and fish is cooked through, turning once, about 4 minutes per side.
9	Transfer fish to platter.
10	Sprinkle with minced parsley.
11	Garnish with lemon wedges.
12	note: if you let the fish sit coated for the 15 minutes that i recommend, this dish will take 45 minutes.
