I dredged the fish in flour, kosher salt, freshly-ground black pepper, added Italian seasoning, & a light sprinkling of cayenne pepper. Cooked fish in olive oil & fresh minced garlic and plated; simmered the wine (chardonnay) w/tomatoes & capers; skipped adding more salt & pepper (capers are salty, plus I had salt in the breading). When I returned the fish to the skillet, along with the asparagus, I also added the butter then. I simmered for about 5 minutes; the asparagus wasn't done enough; at 5 minutes, it was still quite crisp. Topped each plate with a little shredded parmesan. Contrary to some reviewers, I thought this dish was quite flavorful with the wine, lemon juice, capers, & with what I added: Italian seasoning, salt/pepper, cayenne, garlic, & parmesan. Never had tilapia before; learned that it is a fresh-water fish. Living in the Pacific NW, I'm used to a more substantial "heavier" fish such as halibut, and prefer that if I'm going to eat fish. Thanks much!
