Red Snapper With Lemon Caper Butter Sauce Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Valinkenmore / All my dishes 4 months, 3 weeks ago I found this recipe online and it says it is from Food & Wine Magazine. It sounds delicious and I can't wait to find some fresh snapper so I can make it. I think I might grill the fish though instead of frying it but the sauce would work either way....

Ingredients

3 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil

4 each 6-ounce red snapper fillets

salt and freshly ground pepper

2 Tbsp. butter, cut into 4 pieces

1 shallot, finely chopped

2 Tbsp. drained capers

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 tablespoons finely chopped Italian parsley

Directions

In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil until shimmering. Season the fish with salt and pepper. Add it to the skillet and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until golden and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Carefully transfer the fish to plates and keep warm.

Wipe out the skillet and add the remaining oil. Add the shallots and capers and cook over moderate heat until the shallots are softened and the capers are slightly crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the lemon juice and simmer until slightly reduced. Add the butter and whisk until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley. Spoon the sauce over the fish and serve right away.
