Recipe by Jessica K

I love seafood! This is a great simple alternative to frying! Remember to use FRESH fish, or it will be a little mushy!

INGREDIENTS

Nutrition
  • 4
    mild fish fillets (I usually use flounder or tilapia)
  • 1⁄4
    cup butter
  • 1
    dash olive oil, I make my own but unflavored is fine
  • 3 -4
    garlic cloves (more or less to your taste)
  • 1⁄2
    cup good white wine, not too sweet
  • 1⁄2
    lemon
  • lemon pepper
  • salt, add other seasonings to your taste
  • your favorite mix herbs, I like rosemary and oregano

DIRECTIONS

  • Melt butter in skillet with oil. Add garlic, cook maybe 2 min on medium heat.
  • Add the fillets, don't crowd them. Depending on your skillet and fillet size, I usually only do 2 at a time.
  • Sprinkle seasonings on one side and add herbs to the butter. Add wine and lemon juice now. Cook maybe 5 minute.
  • Now flip over and sprinkle other side with seasonings. cook 5 more minute or till flakes with a fork easily.
  • Repeat with other fillets. Add more butter and wine if sauce looks like it is disappearing.
  • Enjoy!
