STEAMED TILAPIA IN WINE SAUCE
I developed this recipe while working at a local winery. Fast and easy to prepare, it became an instant classic at my house. I use a lively dry pear wine in the sauce and recommend avoiding those that are sweet or semi-sweet. -Tenneille Brewer, Fayette, New York

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 IN WINE AND WORCESTERSHIRE
I almost didn't try this recipe, I just couldn't get my head around fish and worcestershire. So glad I tried it..I found the original recipe on a card at the seafood counter at my grocery store years ago. I've added butter and adjust the amount up or down depending on number of filets being cooked. I adjust Tabasco carefully. !!

Tips:
- To ensure the tilapia fillets remain moist and flaky, avoid overcooking them. The ideal internal temperature for cooked fish is 145°F (63°C). You can use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the fish during cooking.
- For a more flavorful dish, use a dry white wine that has a crisp, acidic taste. Some good options include Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, or Chardonnay.
- If you don't have Worcestershire sauce, you can substitute a mixture of soy sauce and balsamic vinegar. Use equal parts of each.
- Feel free to adjust the amount of garlic and lemon juice in the recipe according to your taste preferences.
- To add a pop of color and freshness to the dish, garnish it with chopped parsley or chives before serving.
- This recipe is also great for grilling or baking. If you choose to grill the fish, preheat your grill to medium-high heat and cook the tilapia fillets for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
