Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2

Place the fish in a lightly greased cast iron or roasting pan or a sheet pan lined with parchment. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and sprinkle with salt and ground pepper. Bake for approximately 15 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 3

While the fish is cooking, put the oil and butter in a small saucepan and melt the butter. Add the capers and continue cooking for less than 1 minute, just until the capers are aromatic. Then take the sauce off the heat, add the lemon juice, zest, dill, salt and pepper.

Step 4

Once the fish is done and plated, serve topped with sauce.
