Servings: 2
2 tilapia fillets (or other white fish fillets)
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 splash dry white wine
1/4 cup vegetable stock
1/2 lemon (juice)
1/2 lemon (sliced)
2 tablespoons capers
2 small peperoncini peppers (sliced, optional)
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon parsley (chopped)
Step 1: Season the fish with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Heat the oil and butter in a pan.
Step 3: Add the fish and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side and set aside.
Step 4: Add the wine and deglaze the pan.
Step 5: Add the chicken stock, lemon juice, lemon slices, capers and peperoncinis and simmer to reduce the liquids by half.
Step 6: Stir in the butter and pour over the fish and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
Step 7: Note: One-Pan: Make this a one-pan meal by adding 8 ounces of pasta and 2 1/4 cups broth or water (or 1 cup of rice and 2 cups broth or water) to the sauce in step 5 and simmer, covered, until cooked, about 12 minutes (or 20 minutes for rice).
