    Thinly slicing the butter hastens the softening and enables you to quickly make this spicy citrus butter that will take the mild flavor of tilapia to new heights.

    Ingredients

    Serves:

      • 1 1/2 Tbsp thinly sliced unsalted butter, softened
      • 1 tsp chili powder
      • 1/2 tsp grated lime zest
      • 1 tsp lime juice
      • 1 pinch cayenne
      • 1 1/2 lbs tilapia fillet (about 6)
      • 2 Tbs olive oil

    Directions

    Stir together butter, chili powder, lime zest and juice, cayenne, and 1/4 tsp salt. Pat fish dry and lightly season with salt and pepper.

    Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until it shimmers, then saute half of fish, turning once, until just cooked through, about 4 minutes total. Transfer fish to plates and top with half of butter. Heat remaining Tbsp oil and saute remaining fish in same manner.
