BAKED FLOUNDER FILLETS WITH LEMON-PEPPER VEGETABLES
Steps:
- In a bowl whisk together the wine, the lemon juice, the parsley, the oil, the pepper, and salt to taste and add the onion. In another bowl toss together the carrots, the squash, and the zucchini, add about 1/4 cup of the liquid from the onion mixture, and toss the mixture well. Spread the onion mixture in the bottom of a greased glass baking dish, 15 by 10 by 2 inches. On a work surface arrange the flounder fillet halves, skinned sides up, beginning with the narrow end roll up each fillet half jelly-roll fashion, and secure each roll with a wooden pick. Arrange the fish rolls, seam sides down and not touching each other, on the onion mixture, put an oiled sheet of parchment or wax paper directly on them, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 400°F. oven for 8 minutes. Spread the vegetable mixture around the rolls and bake the mixture, the fish covered directly with the parchment, for 7 to 12 minutes more, or until the fish just flakes. Transfer the vegetables to a heated platter, arrange the fish rolls on top of them, and spoon the juices over the top.
Tips:
- For the freshest flavor, use flounder fillets that are caught within the last 24 hours.
- When choosing vegetables, select those that are firm and brightly colored.
- To ensure even cooking, cut the vegetables into uniform pieces.
- Don't overcrowd the baking dish, or the vegetables will steam instead of roast.
- For a crispy crust on the fish, pat the fillets dry before cooking.
- Season the fish and vegetables generously with lemon pepper seasoning.
- If the lemon pepper seasoning is too salty for your taste, you can reduce the amount or omit it altogether.
- Serve the baked flounder fillets immediately with roasted vegetables and lemon wedges.
Conclusion:
Baked flounder fillets with lemon pepper vegetables is a healthy and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The fish is flaky and tender, and the vegetables are roasted to perfection. The lemon pepper seasoning adds a bright and zesty flavor to the dish. This recipe is easy to follow and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
