Tilapia with Shallots, Dill,
and White Wine
The Cookie Lady cannot leave well enough alone sooo, she created a second way to enjoy this light and delicious fish. Both recipes are good, both are easy, and both are quick. Dr. M. says both are good enough for company. Cookie Lady says it is easy to increase the number of servings by the number of people you have sitting down for dinner.

And if you have enjoyed this dish, you will want to check out this companion recipe from the Cookie Lady's kitchen for another warm weather dinner.

Prepare the base

Preheat oven to 400°. In an ovenproof dish melt

  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil

Add

  • 2 large shallots finely chopped
Cook over very low heat about 10 minutes.

Add

  • 1 Tbsp. fresh or 1 tsp. dry dill

Add

  • ¼ c. good white wine or dry vermouth
Cook 3 to 5 minutes.

Add the fish

Place in the butter-oil mixture

  • 12 oz. of tilapia filets
turning the fish to coat with the sauce. Salt and pepper (I use white pepper) the fish.

Finish the preparation

Top the fish with

  • ½ Tbsp. capers, well rinsed in a strainer (optional)
  • ½ Tbsp. very good olive oil or white truffle oil -- drizzle over fish.
Bake in preheated 400° oven about 15 minutes, depending upon how thick the fish is. It should be opaque and almost ready to flake.

Serves 2 to 3.

Note: I served this and my Tilapia with Chive-Caper Sauce with roasted asparagus simply dressed with olive oil, salt and pepper, baked at 400° about 15 minutes.
