INGREDIENTS
- 3/4 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons drained brine-packed green peppercorns, lightly crushed
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
- 2 (6-ounce) tilapia or sole fillets
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons butter
- Lemon wedges (optional)
- 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; sauté 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
VERDICT
I wouldn't cook this the same week as the chicken, but it's a simple, fast and tasty recipe for fish. My only complaint is how runny the sauce makes everything else on the plate. I'm a big sucker for each food having it's own little place on the plate and not touching- so this drove me nuts. But it was a good sauce, so it did make the vegetables and rice taste good too.
