Recipe by RhondaR from allrecipes.com

Dinner 30 Mins.

Ingredients

4

4 servings

  • 4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia fillets, or more to taste
  • 1 pinch Cajun seasoning, or to taste
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour, or as needed
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup chopped onion
  • ¼ cup white cooking wine, or more as needed
  • ¼ cup capers

Instructions

  • Dry tilapia fillets and cut each in half. Season each fillet with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Dredge in flour to coat, shaking off excess.
  • Melt butter and oil in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Pan-fry fish quickly, working in batches if needed, until edges appear white, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until easily flaked with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes more. Remove to a plate and keep warm.
  • Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Saute onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Pour white wine into the pan, reduce heat, and let simmer until reduced by about half, 5 to 7 minutes. Drizzle sauce over fish before serving and garnish with capers.
