Ingredients
  

  • 2 ounces Soft butter  
  • 1 pound  Triggerfish
  • 1 tablespoon  Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Freshly ground pepper  
  • 2 ounces White wine  
  • 1 medium Shallots minced  
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh lemon juice  
  • 2 teaspoons  Drained Capers
  • Cholula Hot Sauce

Instructions
 

  • Melt butter in a sauté pan over medium heat. Season the fish with salt and pepper. 
  • Once the butter has melted and is foaming, add the fillet to the pan and sauté until lightly golden brown. 
  • Flip the fish and continue sautéing until the fillet is fully cooked, which should take approximately 8-10 minutes. 
  • Transfer the fish to a platter and keep it warm. Reduce the heat to low, and add wine and shallots to the pan, stirring slowly but constantly with a wooden spoon for approximately 2 minutes.
  • Then add lemon juice and capers and continue stirring until the mixture thickens into a sauce-like consistency. 
  • Drizzle the sauce over the fish and serve.
