- 1 teaspoon finely grated fresh lime zest

- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice

- 1/2 teaspoon salt

For fish

- 3 pieces tilapia fillet, skin on

To make chili lime butter:

1. Mix together butter, shallot, zest, lime juice, chili, and salt in a bowl.

2. Form into a roll and chill.

To prepare fish:

1. Score tilapia skin at 3 or 4 places with a thin sharp knife to prevent fish from curling (do not cut through flesh). 

2. Pat fish dry and sprinkle with salt. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until just smoking, then sauté 3 pieces of fish, turning over once, until golden and just cooked through, and transfer to a plate. 

3. Serve each piece of fish with a dollop of lime butter.
