CAJUN FRIED FLOUNDER WITH DIJON TARTAR SAUCE

Steps:
- Make the tartar sauce: Stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, relish, dill, vinegar, sugar and Worcestershire sauce in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
- Make the flounder: Soak the fish in the buttermilk in a bowl for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, pour enough oil to go 1 1/2 inches up the sides of a large, deep cast-iron skillet. Heat over medium heat to 375 degrees F.
- Sprinkle the fish lightly with salt and pepper. Place the cornmeal and flour in a shallow dish or paper bag. Sprinkle the fish with the Cajun seasoning. Add the fish to the flour mixture and coat each piece evenly. Transfer the breaded fish to a plate or cutting board.
- Add the fish to the oil in batches and fry until the pieces start to float to the top and are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a wire rack after cooking to let the extra oil run off. Sprinkle a little lemon juice on top of each fillet before serving. Serve with the tartar sauce.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F and place a sheet pan in the oven.

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.

FLOUNDER (OR OTHER WHITE FISH) STUFFED WITH SHRIMP
This is best with thin fillets of flounder, tilapia, snapper, etc. They roll up easier. I've tried to correct the ingredients to reflect 1/2 lb shrimp, but it keeps reverting to 1/2 shrimp. Please use 1/2 lb shrimp. :)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to low, or 150 degrees. Mix the flour, salt and pepper and dip the fillets in the mixture to coat both sides. Shake off the excess. Heat a large skillet very hot, add the clarified butter and when it is very hot fry the fillets quickly, turning them once, until they are golden brown on both sides (about 2 minutes or less, all told). Remove the fillets to dinner plates and keep warm in the oven.
- Pour off any remaining clarified butter or oil from the skillet, add 2 tablespoons unsalted regular butter and (still over high heat) add the shallots and saute 30 seconds. Add the wine and fish stock and boil hard until it is almost gone. Add the thyme and chopped tomatoes and boil briefly until slightly reduced. Season with salt and pepper, remove the skillet from the heat and whisk in the additional regular butter bit by bit, incorporating each piece almost completely before adding the next. Warm the sauce again if necessary, but do not let it boil.
- Spoon a small amount of the sauce over the fish fillets in the oven, return the skillet to the heat, add the chopped pasta and toss with the rest of the sauce until heated through. Spoon the pasta onto the dinner plates and serve with a tossed salad.
