Zesty Lemon Butter Fish Directions
- Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt, pepper, and paprika.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and lightly spray it with cooking spray.
- Add the fish fillets to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the light butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Stir in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.
- Return the cooked fish fillets to the skillet and spoon the lemon butter sauce over them. Allow the fish to heat through for 1 minute, then sprinkle with chopped parsley if desired.
- Serve the fish fillets with the remaining lemon butter sauce drizzled on top, alongside your favorite vegetables or a light side dish like quinoa or cauliflower rice.
