I often eat at Macaroni Grill and order their Pollo Scaloppine. I thought I might try and adapt it at home using a mild fish. My husband was amazed at what I came up with. It's good with salad, brown rice and crusty bread.

👨‍🍳 Instructions

Heat olive oil with butter in a skillet over medium heat.

Stir in the garlic.

Place fish fillets in the skillet; sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper, and cook for 90 seconds.

Turn the fish; season with salt and pepper, and cook an additional 90 seconds.

Add the mushrooms, capers, and wine.

Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the wine is reduced by half, 6 to 7 minutes.

Remove the cover, pour in lemon juice, and cook for one minute.
