Time 18m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
salt and pepper to taste
½ cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Rinse tilapia fillets in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides of each fillet with salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish; gently press each fillet into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook the tilapia in the hot oil until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes per side. Brush the melted butter onto the tilapia in the last minute before removing from the skillet. Serve immediately.
