Steps:
- Pat snapper fillets dry. Dust with flour, and shake off any excess. Sprinkle them on both sides with salt and pepper.Prepare a heavy pan with the olive oil and 1 TB butter. Heat on medium-high until butter is melted but not browned, then turn the heat down to medium.
- Place the fillets in the pan and cook about 4 minutes. Don't touch the fillets until they're ready to flip.Use a thin metal spatula to test the fish. If you can slide the spatula under the fish without the fish sticking to the pan, it's ready to flip. If the fillets won't release, give them another 30 seconds. They'll release when they've finished cooking.After flipping, divide the remaining 1 TB butter over both fillets.
- Cook fish another 3-4 minutes until done. Fish will be golden on both the top and bottom and opaque all the way through when finished cooking.Transfer the fish to plates, leaving the excess butter in the pan. Cover fish to keep warm, or set fish in a 200ºF oven.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add the lemon juice and capers, and stir with a wooden spoon. Add half the herbs and stir again. Serve fish hot with pan sauce and remaining herbs.

GRILLED FISH WITH A LEMON-CAPER SAUCE
This recipe works great with any firm, white fish. I recommend red snapper fillets, grouper fillets, or amberjack for saltwater fish. Catfish or tilapia for freshwater fish. The cooktime specified is for fillets about 1 inch thick, so adjust your cooking time accordingly. If you don't have a fish grilling basket, you can use a disposable aluminum pan...directions are included. Be sure to rinse the capers to remove the excess salt.

Steps:
- Brush your fish basket with oil, or if using a disposable 13X9X2 inch aluminum pan, brush it with 1/2 tsp olive oil. Place the fillets in the basket or pan -- do not overlap the fillets. Brush the fillets with 1 tbsp olive oil. Sprinkle fillets with dillweed, lemon-pepper seasoning, and salt.
- Place the pan on a grill rack; grill, covered, over medium-hot coals about 25 minutes (depends on the thickness of your fish fillets). Cook until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Transfer fillets to a serving platter and keep warm.
- While the fish is on the grill, prepare your sauce. Saute the onion in 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring constantly until tender. Remove from heat. Stir in the mayonnaise and next 5 ingredients. Cook over low heat, stirring frequently, just until heated. This process takes about 7 to 10 minutes, so start it according to the thickness of your fish.
- Arrange lemon and lime slices around the fillets. Garnish with parsley sprigs, if desired. Spoon the sauce over the fillets and serve.

- Wipe out the skillet and add the remaining oil. Add the shallots and capers and cook over moderate heat until the shallots are softened and the capers are slightly crisp, about 3 minutes. Add the lemon juice and simmer until slightly reduced. Add the butter and whisk until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley.
