4 (6-ounce) swordfish steaks (about 1 1/2 inches thick)
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons canola oil
Cooking spray
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 teaspoon minced shallots or red onion
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon butter
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons capers
Lemon slices (optional)

1
Sprinkle fish with 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Dredge fish in flour.

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add fish; cook 4 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove fish from pan; keep warm.

Add wine to pan, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Add shallots, and cook until liquid nearly evaporates (shallots will be soft).

Stir in remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, parsley, and capers. Serve sauce over fish, and garnish with lemon slices, if desired.
