Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus extra for the sweat and for seasoning fillets
1 clove garlic, minced
1 (10-ounce package) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1 lemon, zested
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus extra for seasoning fillets
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup white wine
10 ounces grated Cheddar
1 1/2 to 2 pounds flounder fillets
3 cups leftover cooked rice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium saute pan over low heat, melt the butter; add the onion and a pinch of salt and sweat until translucent. Add the garlic and continue to cook for another minute. Add the spinach and lemon zest and cook until just heated through. Season with the salt and pepper, add the parsley, and stir to combine. Remove from the heat and keep warm.
  • Place the heavy cream and wine into a saucepan over medium heat. Once the mixture begins to simmer, gradually add the cheese and stir until melted. Set aside and keep warm.
  • If the fillets are large, cut in half. Season each filet on both sides with salt and pepper. Divide the spinach mixture evenly among the fillets and roll the fish around the mixture. Place the rice into a 2 1/2-quart casserole dish and spread evenly. Place each roll on top of the rice, seam side down. Pour over the cheese sauce and place in the oven for 25 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

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).

BAKED FLOUNDER WITH ROASTED TOMATOES



Baked Flounder with Roasted Tomatoes image

Here, Dijon mustard serves a dual purpose: It flavors the delicate fish, and helps the breadcrumb coating stay in place as the fish cooks. Tilapia can be used in place of the flounder.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for one of the baking sheets
3/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 pinch sugar
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1/3 cup mayonnaise

Arrange tomatoes cut side up. Roast on lower rack until tender, 20 to 25 minutes. (Keep oven on for fish.)
  • Meanwhile, make sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, remaining 1/2 teaspoon tarragon, and lemon juice; season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and brush with oil. In a food processor, place bread, a pinch each salt and pepper, and remaining tablespoon oil; pulse until fine crumbs form.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest flounder you can find. Look for fish that has a mild, sweet smell and firm, white flesh.
  • If you're using frozen flounder, thaw it completely before cooking. You can thaw it overnight in the refrigerator or by placing it in a colander in the sink under cold running water.
  • Use a non-stick baking sheet or pan to cook the flounder. This will help prevent the fish from sticking and breaking apart.
  • Bake the flounder at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for a short time (10-12 minutes). This will help to keep the fish moist and flavorful.
  • Serve the flounder immediately with tartar sauce and your favorite sides.

Conclusion:

Baked flounder is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The fish is mild and flaky, and the tartar sauce adds a tangy flavor. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice. If you are looking for a healthy and delicious seafood option, baked flounder is a great choice. It is low in calories and fat, and it is a good source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids.
