EASY GARLIC PARMESAN BAKED FLOUNDER RECIPE (20 MINS)



Easy Garlic Parmesan Baked Flounder Recipe (20 mins) image

This one-pan baked flounder recipe with garlic, Parmesan cheese, and vegetables is easy and so delicious (thanks to a bold and lemony sauce with Mediterranean spices!). If you can't find flounder, any mild white fish would work, such as Dover sole, halibut, or branzino filet will work. Choose thinner fish filets if possible. Serve baked flounder with potatoes or greens like broccoli or a green bean salad.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ¼ pound flounder fillet, (sole fillet will also work)
2 medium zucchini, (halved and cut into ½-inch slices (half moons))
1 small red onion, (halved and cut into ½-inch slices (half moons))
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 garlic cloves, (minced)
2 teaspoons dried oregano
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cumin
Juice of 2 lemons, (plus more lemon wedges for serving)
¼ cup to 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Pat the fish dry and season it well with kosher salt and black pepper on both sides. Arrange the fish in a large pan and add the zucchini and onions next to it and season them with salt and pepper.
  • In a small mixing bowl, add the garlic, spices, lemon juice, and olive oil. Whisk to combine.
  • Pour the sauce all over the fish and vegetables.

Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 3 to 5 minutes or so until the fish is flaky and the cheese has melted some. (Flounder fillets are thin and should not take too long to cook. Be careful not to overcook them).

FLOUNDER MILANESE

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 flounder or sole fillets (1 3/4 pounds total)
1 cup all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 extra-large eggs
1 1/4 cups seasoned dry bread crumbs, such as Progresso
Unsalted butter
Good olive oil
6 ounces arugula or mixed salad greens for 6
Lemon Vinaigrette, recipe follows
2 tablespoons drained capers
Freshly grated Italian Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, and fleur de sel, for serving
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 cup good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F and place a sheet pan in the oven.
  • Dry the fish on both sides with paper towels. Combine the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper on a dinner plate. In a low, shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with 1 tablespoon water. Put the bread crumbs on another plate. Dredge the fish on both sides in the seasoned flour and dust off the excess. Dip both sides into the egg mixture and, finally, dredge both sides in the bread crumbs.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and cook 2 fillets at a time over medium to medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Transfer the fish in one layer to the sheet pan in the oven. Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the fillets, transferring them to the sheet pan as they're done. Toss the arugula with enough Lemon Vinaigrette to moisten. Place one fillet on each plate and pile the arugula salad on top. Heat the capers in the saute pan for 30 seconds and sprinkle over the fish and salad. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan, a squeeze of lemon juice, and the fleur de sel. Serve hot.
  • In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
