How to Make Fish With Lemon Butter Caper Sauce
- In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Dredge the fish fillets (about 1 lb) in the seasoned flour, gently shaking off any excess.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a heavy-based skillet over medium-high heat until melted and foaming.
- Add the fish fillets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside on serving plates.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Add 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 1 tablespoon lemon zest, 2 tablespoons capers (drained), and 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley.
- Cook for 1 minute, or until the sauce is slightly thickened and heated through. Spoon the sauce generously over the fish, distributing the capers evenly.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
