Cuisine: Fish

Category: Fish

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 fresh sole fillets, 3 to 4 ounces each
6 tbs unsalted butter
1 tsp grated lemon zest
6 tbs freshly squeezed lemon juice (3 lemons)
1 tb minced fresh parsley


Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Have 2 heat-proof dinner plates ready Combine the flour, 2 tsp salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large shallow plate. Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels and sprinkle one side with salt. Heat 3 tbs of butter in a large (12-inch) saute pan over medium heat until it starts to brown. Dredge 2 sole fillets in the seasoned flour on both sides and place them in the hot butter. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook for 2 minutes. Turn carefully with a metal spatula and cook for 2 minutes on the other side. While the second side cooks, add 1/2 tsp of lemon zest and 3 tbs lemon juice to the pan. Carefully put the fish filets on the ovenproof plates and pour the sauce over them. Keep the cooked fillets warm in the oven while you repeat the process with the remaining 2 fillets. When they're done, add the cooked fillets to the plates in the oven. Sprinkle with the parsley, salt, and pepper and serve immediately. not tried
