PAN-ROASTED TILEFISH WITH PROSCIUTTO, LEMON, WHITE WINE AND CAPERS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Spread the flour on a deep plate or in a shallow bowl and season generously with salt and pepper. Dredge the tilefish fillets in the flour.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon each of the butter and olive oil. Add the fillets and sear until browned on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. At the same time, add the prosciutto and cook, stirring, until browned. Flip the fillets and place the skillet in the oven. Roast until the fish is just cooked through, about 10 minutes. Set the fillets on serving plates and drain the prosciutto on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Return the skillet to the stovetop and heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the white wine, parsley, capers and lemon juice. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced and thickened. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the sauce over the fish, top with the prosciutto, and garnish with parsley sprigs. Serve immediately.

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.
EASY PAN-FRIED TILAPIA
Steps:
- Dry tilapia fillets and cut each in half. Season each fillet with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Dredge in flour to coat, shaking off excess.
- Melt butter and oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-fry fish quickly, working in batches if needed, until edges appear white, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until easily flaked with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes more. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
- Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Saute onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Pour white wine into the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer until reduced by about half, 5 to 7 minutes. Drizzle sauce over fish before serving and garnish with capers.

Tips:
- When choosing tilapia, look for fillets that are firm and have a slightly translucent appearance. Avoid fillets that are mushy or have a slimy texture.
- To ensure the tilapia is cooked evenly, use a non-stick skillet and cook the fillets over medium heat.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet. Cook the fillets in batches if necessary.
- Season the tilapia fillets liberally with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help enhance the flavor of the fish.
- To achieve a crispy skin, pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels before cooking.
- Use a combination of butter and olive oil to cook the tilapia. This will help prevent the butter from burning and will add flavor to the fish.
- Once the tilapia fillets are cooked, remove them from the skillet and set aside. Keep them warm while you make the white wine and caper sauce.
- To make the white wine and caper sauce, simply heat the butter and olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until softened. Add the white wine, capers, and lemon juice. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Pour the white wine and caper sauce over the tilapia fillets and serve immediately.
