Pat fish dry with paper towels.
Season fish with salt, pepper or whatever you like.
Preheat pan over medium-high heat longer than you think.
Add a couple tbsp oil to the pan.
When oil is shimmering, place fish service side down first.
Cook on that one side about 80% of the way cooked.
Flip the fish.
Turn off the heat and remove from burner.
Cook for about 60-90 seconds.
Make tomato jam: Combine tomatoes, garlic, thyme, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar.
