Lemon Herb Pan Seared Tilapia with Garlic Butter Sauce
Savor a perfectly pan-seared tilapia fillet kissed with a bright, zesty lemon herb and garlic butter sauce. This dish marries tender, flaky fish with a velvety, aromatic sauce for a light yet satisfying meal that delights the palate.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Tilapia Fillet
2 tablespoons Unsalted Butter
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1/2 serving Lemon Juice (from half a lemon)
1 tablespoon Fresh Parsley
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the tilapia dry with a paper towel and season both sides lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the tilapia fillet, skin-side down if applicable, and cook for 3-4 minutes until a golden crust forms.
Flip the fillet gently and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
In a small pan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley into the melted butter, cooking for an additional 30 seconds to meld the flavors.
Drizzle the garlic butter sauce over the cooked tilapia, and serve immediately with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
