Perch sauteed in Browned Butter

We bought some fresh perch recently, this is sauteed in butter that is allowed to brown first, so that the fish has a nice color when served.

Ingredients

4 filets of Perch
1/2 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon oil
Lemon wedges.

Directions

Measure 1/2 cup flour and add 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper and mix well together. Put this flour mixture on a plate and press the fish really well into the flour mixture on both sides.
Meanwhile in a skillet, put 1 tablespoon olive oil and 4 tablespoons butter, over medium high heat, melt the butter and let it become slightly browned. Add the filets and saute 3 minutes on each side. Serve with lemon wedges
