Ingredients
-
4 (5 ounce) fresh or frozen snapper fillets with skin, each cut diagonally into thirds (see Tip)
-
1 tablespoon olive oil
-
½ cup dry white wine or reduced-sodium chicken broth
-
½ cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
-
1 tablespoon butter
-
4 green onions (white parts only), thinly sliced diagonally
-
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
-
2 tablespoons lemon juice
-
2 tablespoons capers, drained
-
Dash freshly ground black pepper
-
1 Lemon wedges
Directions
-
Thaw fish, if frozen. Measure thickness of fish. Rinse fish under cold running water; pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
-
In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Place fish pieces in skillet, skin sides down. Cook for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch thickness of fish or until skin is crisp and fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, turning once. Transfer fillets to a serving platter, skin sides up.
-
Return skillet to heat. Add white wine to skillet; cook for 2 to 2 1/2 minutes or until wine is almost evaporated, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Add broth. Bring just to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 4 minutes or until liquid is reduced by about half. Add butter, stirring until it melts; stir in green onions and chives.
-
Remove skillet from heat; add the lemon juice, capers, and pepper. Pour sauce over fish to serve. If desired, serve with lemon wedges.
Tips
Tip: For even crisper fish, dip the fish pieces in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour to coat. Increase oil amount by 2 to 3 teaspoons.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
