This was a really delicious, super quick and easy meal. It is slightly adapted from Cooking Light (basically I used capers in place of peppercorns) and was delicious served over rice. I highly recommend this for a healthy and easy dinner!
Ingredients:
3/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons (or more to taste) drained capers
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 (6-ounce) tilapia or sole fillets
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons butter
Lemon wedges for garnish
Directions:
Combine first 3 ingredients. Melt 1 teaspoon of butter with oil in a large nonstick skillet over low heat.
While butter melts, combine salt, pepper, and flour in a shallow dish. Dredge fillets in flour mixture until all sides are evenly covered.
Increase heat to medium-high; heat 2 minutes or until butter turns golden brown. Add fillets to pan; sauté 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove fillets from pan.
Add broth mixture to pan, scraping to loosen browned bits. Bring to a boil; cook until reduced to 1/2 cup (about 3 minutes). Remove from heat. Stir in two teaspoons of butter with a whisk. Serve sauce over fillets. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.
