Categories     Tilapia

Time 10m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons drained green peppercorns in brine, lightly crushed
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
12 ounces tilapia fillets or 12 ounces sole fillets
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons butter
lemon wedge (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine first 3 ingredients.
  • Melt 1 teaspoon of butter with oil in a large nonstick skillet over low heat.
  • While butter melts, sprinkle fish fillets with salt and black pepper.
  • Place the flour in a shallow dish.
  • Dredge fillets in flour; shake off excess flour.
  • Increase heat to medium-high; heat 2 minutes or until butter turns golden brown. Add fillets to pan; saute 3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove fillets from pan. Add broth mixture to pan, scraping to loosen browned bits. Bring to a boil; cook until reduced to 1/2 cup (about 3 minutes). Remove from heat. Stir in two teaspoons of butter with a whisk. Serve sauce over fillets. Garnish with lemon wedges, if desired.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but this recipe turned out terribly. The fish was tough and the sauce was too salty.

This recipe was a disappointment. The sauce was too thin and the fish was dry.

I found that the fish was a bit overcooked when I followed the recipe exactly. I would recommend cooking it for a shorter amount of time.

This recipe is a bit bland for my taste. I added some extra lemon juice and peppercorns to the sauce and it was much better.

I'm always looking for new ways to cook tilapia and this recipe is a great one. The lemon-peppercorn sauce is a nice change from the usual butter and lemon.
