In a large skillet, heat oil over medium high heat until hot. Add fillets and squeeze 1/2 of the lemon's juice over the tops. Sprinkle with pepper to taste. Cook for 4 minutes and turn. Squeeze with the remaining lemon's juice and sprinkle with pepper to taste. Continue to cook until fillets flake easily with a fork.


I fixed this for a husband who LOVES fish and two 8-year old picky eaters. There
were no leftovers! I served it with yellow rice and mixed vegetables. The whole 
meal was done and on the table in less than 30 minutes. At last, a great fish dish
that does not require dredging and deep frying fish. I just wish I could give it
more than a five card rating! 


I made this last night and it was very good.  I used the remaining liquid  from the fish to make a sauce by adding a little cornstarch, milk and parmesan cheese.  It turned out suprisingly well. Thanks!

Couldn't be simpler. You really don't need anything else, though sometimes I like to add some salsa as a topping.   Works just as well with limes.

I rubbed the fish with EVOO and then coated with lemon pepper seasoning. Was not bland at all this way. Oh, and I baked it - 400 for 10 mins. Kids loved it (of course they though it was chicken)!

This was so quick and easy I couldn't believe it was already done! And it tasted great even my picky boyfriend was impressed.

This was great fish. I didn't not have a lemon so I used lemon juice. I distributed 1 tbsp per piece of fish on each side. I also used olive oil instead of vegetable. Will definitely make again.

I've made this twice in the last week. First time was as written, got rave reviews. The second time I used butter instead of oil, got even more raves. This dish is what I call 'stupid simple', and results in perfectly cooked, beautifully seasoned fish. DH wants it in my regular rotation. Great recipe!

so easy and very good. my fiancee' thinks im a gourmet cook. i get all my recipes from here. i love this one!

I didn't have a fresh lemon but used lemon juice. Very good.

Very bland! Definitely won't make this one again.
