Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia fillets, or more to taste
1 pinch Cajun seasoning, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup white cooking wine, or more as needed
¼ cup capers

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.

This pan-fried tilapia recipe was a hit with my family! The fish was crispy on the outside and flaky and moist on the inside. The lemon-butter sauce was also delicious and really complemented the fish. I will definitely be making this recipe again.
