Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste
• 3 tablespoons capers
• 2 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
• 1 lemon, halved
• 2 (3 ounce) fillets tilapia fillets
• 1 cup asparagus spears, trimmed and cut in half
• 0.5 cup white wine

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Drizzle fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place fillets in skillet and sprinkle with half of the lemon over. Cook for 3 minutes per side, or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Transfer fillets to a plate, and keep warm.

Step 2

Add wine, remaining 1/2 lemon, tomatoes, capers, and salt and pepper to the skillet. Increase heat to medium high and boil for 2 minutes to burn off alcohol. Reduce heat to low and return fillets to the pan along with the asparagus. Cover and simmer 2 minutes more, then transfer fish and asparagus to a serving dish and keep warm.

Step 3

Again, increase heat to medium high and whisk in butter, and boil to desired consistency. Spoon sauce over fish, and serve.
