Preparing the Fish:

Season the Fish: Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. Drizzle with olive oil and season both sides with salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Cook the Fish: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the fish fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Preparing the Lemon Butter Sauce:

Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter and olive oil. Once the butter has melted, add the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.

Add Lemon and Seasoning: Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes.

Serving the Dish:

Plate the Fish: Place the cooked fish fillets on a serving platter.

Pour the Sauce: Drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the fish fillets.

Garnish: Garnish with lemon slices and additional chopped parsley.
