Pan-Seared Tilapia

4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia

salt and pepper to taste

½ cup all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Rinse tilapia fillets in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season both sides of each fillet with salt and pepper. Place the flour in a shallow dish; gently press each fillet into the flour to coat and shake off the excess flour.

Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook the tilapia in the hot oil until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes per side. Brush the melted butter onto the tilapia in the last minute before removing from the skillet. Serve immediately.
