The ingredients for Easy Lemon Butter Fish are:

16 oz Grouper (fish)
3 tbsp Butter, salted
2 fl oz Lemon Juice
3 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Garlic powder
1 tsp Onion powder
.25 tsp Pepper, black

Here is how you make Easy Lemon Butter Fish:

Use paper towels to thoroughly dry excess moisture from fish fillets ? this step is crucial for fish to brown nicely in pan. Set aside. In a bowl, combine melted butter, lemon juice and zest, and 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Stir to combine well. In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 1/2 tsp kosher salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Evenly press spice mixture onto both sides of fish fillets. In a large, heavy pan over medium high heat, heat up the olive oil until hot. Cook 2 fish fillets at a time to avoid overcrowding (allows for browning.) Cook each side just until fish becomes opaque, feels somewhat firm in the center, and is browned ? lightly drizzle some of the lemon butter sauce as you cook, reserving the rest for serving. Take care not to over-cook, as that will result in a tougher texture. Serve fish with with remaining lemon butter sauce, basil or parsley, and lemon wedges.Serving Size: makes 4 servingsNumber of Servings: 1Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user DARLINGNIKK76.
