Pan Grilled Tilapia with Lemon Caper Dressing

This is one of my favorites. The lemon caper dressing makes the dish. I love it.

 

Season tilapia fillet with salt, pepper, garlic powder or fish seasoning and put it in a non stick pan over medium-high heat; cook the tilapia until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes per side.

Brush half lemon with olive oil and place it on the hot grill, cut side down. Grill lemon until nicely browned, about 5 minutes, turning once. Let it cool and squeeze it in a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of drained capers and some olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Wisk and adjust seasoning. (you can skip the olive oil)

Drizzle fish with lemon caper dressing. Serve with steamed broccoli.
