Lemon and Brown Butter Fish Fillets

Here's a recipe for pan fried fish that my boys both love!  They even like the lemon butter sauce now.  :)
Lemon and Brown Butter Fish Fillets
It's a Rachel Ray recipe, and it's so good!  She does the meal with seared grape tomatoes, but we didn't like those.  So we always have this meal with crusty bread or boiled potatoes with butter and parsley.  Yummo!!!
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
1/4 c. fresh flat-leaf parsley
4 6oz fish fillets (we use tilapia)
flour for dredging
salt and pepper
4 T. cold unsalted butter
juice of 1 lemon
1.  Season fish with salt and pepper then dredge in flour.
2.  Heat oil in a large skillet.
3.  Shake off excess flour from the fish and add to the skillet.
4.  Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side.  Set fish aside and cover to keep warm.
5.  Wipe the skillet clean and return to the cook-top over medium-high heat.
6.  Melt butter until it is brown and smells slightly nutty.
7.  Add the lemon juice and parsley.
8.  Serve fish with sauce.
