Donna's Simple Lemon Pepper Tilapia

Happy Father's Day and Summer Solstice!  With so much going on this weekend, we wanted to get many chores done and also spend time with family so cooking time was short.  For dinner, I prepared a very simple fried fish that has lots of flavor from the butter, lemon pepper and lemon juice.  I sliced up the first pineapple we grew and its sweetness was a perfect accompaniment to the fish!  Enjoy, Donna:

Donna's Simple Lemon Pepper Tilapia

Ingredients:

2 Tablespoons butter

1 pound tilapia fillets (about 3)

Lemon pepper to taste

Lemon wedges

Method:

Melt butter in large frying pan over high heat.  Sprinkle one side of fillets with lemon pepper and place seasoned side down in pan.  Sprinkle top of fillets with lemon pepper and cook about 3-4 minutes.  Flip and cook for another few minutes just until fish is white and flakes easily. Squeeze lemon juice on top of fish and serve immediately.

Serves 2-3.
