Number Of Ingredients 6

16 ounces tilapia fillets
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons butter
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Salt and pepper the fish and dredge in the flour. Shake off any extra flour.
  • Heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Pan fry the fish for 4 minutes per side.
  • Remove fish and set aside, but keep it warm.
  • Brown the butter slowly over medium heat.
  • Add balsamic vinegar.
  • Simmer until volume reduces by half. It should be somewhat like a syrup, but not that thick.

  • Healthier Ideas: Try baking the tilapia for less fat. (Not sure what to suggest about the butter! LOL!).
