Servings

1 lb. tilapia fillets
1 tablespoon olive oil extra virgin
1 clove garlic, smashed, but kept whole (used only to flavor the oil and then removed)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons capers, drained
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly grease a 13" x 9" baking pan.
In a small saucepan over medium, heat the olive oil. Add the smashed garlic clove and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, just until it starts to brown. Remove garlic clove and discard. Add butter and stir until melted. Stir in lemon juice.
Place tilapia fillets in prepared pan. Pour lemon-butter sauce over top. Sprinkle with capers, oregano, salt and pepper.
Bake, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve.
