Ingredients:

Serving

4 (6 oz) tilapia fillets
1/3 cup flour
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp gingerroot, grated
1 tbsp sriracha chili sauce
1 onion, sliced
2 tbsp unsalted butter

Directions:

Combine flour and pepper and salt. Cover tilapia filets in flour mix - there is no wash, so only a light layer will stick.
Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large pan. Cook floured tilapia in olive oil, about 2 or 3 minutes on each side, until firm to the touch. Remove tilapia from pan and cover to keep warm.
Wipe the pan clean and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the onion and saute in pan until almost cooked, 6-8 minutes. Add the orange juice, lemon juice, ginger, sriracha and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the butter and remove the sauce from the heat. Spoon over the tilapia and serve.
