Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon margarine
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 6 white pepper
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions:
-
In a bowl, combine the butter, margarine, thyme, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and white pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated.
-
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and transfer the herb-infused butter mixture into the pan.
-
Once the butter has melted and the pan is heated, carefully place the butterfish fillets into the pan, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
-
Cook the butterfish fillets for 3-5 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness. You can check for doneness by gently flaking the fish with a fork; it should easily separate into large, opaque flakes.
-
As the butterfish cooks, you’ll notice a delightful aroma filling your kitchen, a tantalizing blend of herbs and butter melding together.
-
Once the fish is cooked to perfection, remove it from the pan and transfer it to a serving platter.
-
Before serving, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the butterfish fillets to add a burst of citrusy flavor. Alternatively, you can serve the lemon wedges as a garnish alongside the fish.
-
This dish pairs wonderfully with your favorite side dishes such as steamed vegetables, rice, or a crisp salad.
