Ingredients
- 4 haddock fillets
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge the haddock fillets in the seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the haddock fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fillets from the skillet and keep warm.
- In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the chicken broth and lemon juice, and add the capers. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce slightly thickens.
- Return the haddock fillets to the skillet, spoon the sauce over them, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.
- Serve the pan-fried haddock with lemon and capers immediately, accompanied by your choice of side dishes.
