1. Season the sole fillets on both sides with salt and black pepper.
2. In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
3. Gently place the sole fillets in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and just cooked through. Remove the fillets and set aside on a warm plate.
4. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Reduce the heat to medium.
5. Mince the garlic cloves and finely chop the parsley leaves. Add the garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
6. Add the white wine and water to the skillet, stirring to dissolve any bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Let the mixture simmer for 3-4 minutes to reduce slightly.
7. Stir in the chopped parsley and capers, then squeeze in the juice of the lemon. Mix well and let the sauce cook for an additional 2 minutes.
8. Return the cooked sole fillets to the skillet, spooning the parsley sauce over the fish to coat evenly.
9. Let the fish heat through for 1-2 minutes, then transfer to a serving platter.
10. Serve immediately with boiled potatoes, steamed vegetables, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
