SautÉed Tilapia With White Wine Lemon Sauce Food

PAN SEARED TILAPIA IN WHITE WINE LEMON SAUCE RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Cut the tilapia fillet in half so you have two smaller pieces. Make sure to really pat the fish down with the paper towel so that you get a really good sear. It should be relatively dry to the touch (or as dry as possible for a fish to be.) Dredge the two pieces lightly in the flour and shake off the rest. It should just be a thin white dusting of flour. Now season each side with seasoning salt and put to the side. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and place the fish in. Season the fish with the sea salt and sear on both sides until the fish develops a nice brown color and is white in the center. Now splash in the white wine and the butter and stir around. The sauce will thicken very quickly due to the fish being dusted in the flour. Remove the fish from the pan, pour sauce over fish, and squeeze with some lemon for a burst of freshness. I served my fish with a salad made of arugula, red onion sliced thinly, and some toasted almonds. I whipped up a quick vinaigrette (balsamic vinegar, olive oil, chopped garlic, salt and pepper). This recipe is super healthy and extra delicious.

TILAPIA WITH LEMON BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Prep the tilapia - Defrost in package, if necessary, rinse and place in glass or plastic bowl. Cover with milk and set aside for 30 minute to soak out as much of the strong flavor as possible - the milk will turn pink.
• Using a microplane, zest the lemon, removing as much as possible without getting any of the pith. Juice the lemon and set both the juice and zest aside.
• Preheat an electric skillet to 375°F.
• Remove the tilapia from the milk and discard the milk. Lightly bread the fish with the fish fry. Add a small amount of olive oil to the skillet and distribute evenly. Place the filets in the oil and fry until the fish is just flaky and the breading is a medium brown.
• While the fish is cooking, melt the butter in a small saucepan. add the lemon zest and stir until combined. Whisk in the lemon juice until fully incorporated. You can add more fresh not-from-concentrate lemon juice to taste.
• Remove the cooked filets from the skillet, drain on a paper towel. Plate the fish and drizzle the sauce over to taste. Serve with risotto or pilaf and a green vegetable such as asparagus or broccoli.

• Whisk together chicken stock, lemon juice and capers. Lightly crush the capers.
• Season the tilapia fillets with salt and pepper. Then dredge them in flour, shaking off any excess. Set aside.
• In a large skillet, melt one teaspoon of butter over medium heat. Turn up the heat to medium-high and brown the butter (it should be a golden brown color). Add the fillets to the pan. Sauté for about 3 minutes on each side (they are done when the fish flakes easily with a fork). Add olive oil to the pan as needed if the pan becomes too dry. Transfer fillets to plates.
• Pour the broth mixture into pan, being careful of splatter - it will instantly boil, steam and hiss. Scrape the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits. Continue heating and stirring until the mixture is reduced to about 1/2 cup. Remove the pan from the burner and whisk in two teaspoons of butter. Spoon two tablespoons of mixture, give or take, over each fillet.
