Pan-Seared Tilapia

By SD296

Ingredients

• 2 tilapia fillets
• blackened seasoning to taste
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Preparation

Step 1

Rinse tilapia fillets in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides of each fillet with blackened seasoning. 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.
