Method

1

Cook rice according to package directions; set aside and keep warm.

2

Pat fish fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

3

Pour flour into a shallow bowl. Dredge each fillet lightly on both sides, shaking off excess.

4

Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

5

Place fillets in the skillet and cook for 4–5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temperature 145°F). Transfer to a plate.

6

Add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Add minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.

7

Pour in lemon juice and vegetable broth, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. Bring to a simmer.

8

Add capers and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in butter until melted and incorporated.

9

Divide cooked rice among bowls or plates. Top each portion with one fillet.

10

Pour piccata sauce over the fish. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
