Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet on medium. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Place fish in pan; cook 3 minutes on each side or until fish is opaque throughout. Remove fish from pan and cover to keep warm. Melt butter in pan. Add garlic; cook 1 minute or until lightly browned. Add broth, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Bring to boil; cook until reduced to 1/4 cup (about 6 minutes). Stir in capers and juice; cook 3 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened. Remove from heat; stir in parsley. Serve immediately with fish. (Adapted from Cooking Light magazine.)
