Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Tilapia fillets
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 cup Dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Pat the tilapia fillets dry with paper towels, then season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tilapia fillets and cook for 3 minutes per side, or until lightly golden and cooked through. Remove the fillets from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, add the butter and allow it to melt over medium heat. Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the dry white wine and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet, and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes to reduce slightly.
Add the fresh lemon juice and chopped parsley to the sauce, stirring to combine.
Return the tilapia fillets to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over them. Let the fish warm through for 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and serve immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired. Pair with steamed vegetables or rice for a complete meal.
