Suzy'S Swai Meuniere (Swai In Lemon Butter Sauce) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (8 ounce) fillets swai fish, halved
1/4 cup butter
1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley, or to taste

Preparation

Whisk lemon juice and lemon zest together in a bowl. Mix flour, salt, and pepper together in a resealable gallon-size plastic bag.
Pat swai fish fillets dry with a paper towel; lightly season 1 side of each fillet with salt. Place fillets in the bag with flour mixture, 1 at a time, and shake to coat.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat; add butter and heat until lightly browned. Place coated fish fillets in the browned butter; cook until lightly browned on the edges and fish flakes easily with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer fish to a plate, reserving butter in the skillet.
Pour lemon juice mixture into skillet with reserved butter; cook and stir until a light sauce forms, 2 to 3 minutes. Spoon sauce over fish and garnish with parsley.
