Ingredients

  • 1 pound white fish fillet (cod, haddock, or halibut)
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • 1/4 cup diced onion
  • 2 tablespoons capers
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  3. Rub the spice mixture onto both sides of the fish fillet.
  4. Heat the olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes, then turn over and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  5. Pour the white wine, onion, capers, and lemon juice over the fish, and transfer the skillet to the oven.
  6. Bake for 15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
  7. Serve warm.

Interesting Facts

  • Fish is a lean source of protein and is rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Smoked paprika adds a smoky flavor to the fish without the need for a smoker.
  • White wine adds a touch of acidity to the dish, which pairs perfectly with the smoky flavor of the fish.
