How To Make lemon caper haddock with pimiento

  • Step 1
    In a shallow dish, add flour, salt and pepper; stir to combine.
  • Step 2
    Working with one at a time, dredge fillets in the flour mixture, coating them very well on both sides. Shake off any excess flour and set aside.
  • Step 3
    In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tbsp. clarified butter and lemon juice; swirl the pan to blend the ingredients.
  • Step 4
    When it gets hot, place the fillets and pan fry until golden, about 2:30 to 3 minutes. Flip them and fry the other side until golden as well.
  • Step 5
    When done, transfer the fillets to warm serving plates.
  • Step 6
    In the same skillet, add 1/2 tbsp. clarified butter before adding pressed garlic; sauté for 30 seconds.
  • Step 7
    Add pimiento and stir quickly for 15 seconds. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice, lemon zest, and capers; sauté for 30 seconds.
  • Step 8
    Sprinkle parsley over the fillets, spoon the sauce over and serve immediately.
