Easy Fish



INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 lb Grouper or snapper fillets
(or substitute boneless, skinless chicken breast)

salt 

Pepper

Flour

2 tb Olive or vegetable oil

4 tb Butter, optional

1 Juice of lemon (opt)

DIRECTIONS:

1. Sprinkle fish fillets (or chicken pieces) liberally with
salt and pepper. Coat the pieces with flour, patting them
firmly, then shaking off excess flour.
  
2. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wide skillet (or 2 wide
skillets), and cook the fish over medium-high heat for 3-4
minutes, until browned. Turn fish pieces over and cook
another 3-4 minutes longer.
  
3. Remove fish from skillet and keep warm. Add butter and
heat until it turns a deep brown. Remove from heat and add
juice of one fresh lemon. Pour over fish or chicken. This
final sauce may be augmented with capers or minced garlic,
if desired. Add them after butter  before lemon juice.
