Best 8 Lemon Mustard Broiled Flounder Recipes

BROILED MUSTARD-CRUSTED FLOUNDER

Steps:

• Heat broiler, with rack in top position. Combine yogurt, mustard, capers, and 1 teaspoon oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pat fillets dry with paper towels. Coat one side of fillets with 1 teaspoon oil and arrange, oil side down, on sheet. Spread yogurt mixture on fillets. Broil until fish is opaque throughout and yogurt mixture is bubbling and browned in spots, about 5 minutes. Toss greens with remaining 2 teaspoons oil, season with salt and pepper. Serve fillets with greens and lemon wedges.

BROILED FLOUNDER WITH BUTTER AND LEMON

Steps:

• Pre-heat broiler. In a glass baking dish add the lemon juice, chili flake, butter and olive oil. Place in oven for about one minute, just long enough to melt the butter and remove.
• Season fish lightly with salt and pepper. Dredge the fish in the melted butter-lemon mixture and place under broiler for 6 to 8 minutes. To serve place on a serving plate and spoon the sauce from the dish on top.
• Note: Broilers that are under the oven can be too hot for this dish. Ideally you want the dish to broil at least ten to twelve inches below the fire. If your broiler is too close to the fish then use the same method except bake the fish in a 500 degree oven for a very similar effect.

GRILLED FLOUNDER

Steps:

• Make the brine: Put salt and sugar in a large bowl or pot, and add around a half-gallon of water, stirring to combine and dissolve the salt and sugar.
• Set the burners on a gas grill to medium. When it is hot, scrape grates to make sure they are very clean. (If using a charcoal grill, build a fire in your grill. When coals are covered with gray ash and you can hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 5 to 7 seconds, you are ready to cook.)
• While grill heats, slide the flounder fillets into the brine and allow them to sit for approximately 10 minutes, then remove from the brine and pat very dry with paper towel. Season fillets with salt and pepper, then apply just a little oil to one side of each fillet, lightly spreading it with your fingers to cover the flesh.
• Apply some more oil to a paper towel and, using tongs to protect your hands, use the towel to oil the grill grates. They will smoke furiously. Gently lay the fish fillets, oiled-side down, onto the grates. Cook until the fish has started to turn translucent at its edges, approximately 3 to 4 minutes, then remove from grill and place, grilled-side up, on a warmed platter. The fish will continue to cook as it rests.
• Top each fillet with a small pat of butter, some chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon, then serve.

BROILED FLOUNDER (SO EASY!)

Steps:

• Line a shallow baking pan with aluminum foil. Lightly brush foil with small amount of butter.
• Arrange fish fillets on foil. Brush fillets with remaining butter. Sprinkle Old Bay Seasoning on fillets.
• Broil five inches from heat 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Squeeze lemon wedges over fillets.

LEMON MUSTARD BROILED FLOUNDER

Steps:

• 1. Place the butter in a small bowl and combine with the mustard, parsley, and lemon zest. Set aside.
• 2. Arrange the oven or broiler rack 4 inches from the heat. Preheat the broiler. Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil. Oil the foil lightly. Evenly space 4 flounder fillets on each of the baking sheets.
• 3. Spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the butter mixture atop each fish fillet. Broil for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the fish is lightly browned on top and just cooked through. Do not overcook.
• 4. Serve immediately, garnished with a flourish of clover sprouts and a lemon quarter.

FLOUNDER WITH HERB BLOSSOM BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the herb blossom butter: Put butter in a bowl. Add chives, chive blossoms, dill, thyme blossoms, mustard blossoms if using, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, lemon zest and lemon juice. Add a big pinch of salt and black pepper. Mix well with a fork until well combined. With wet hands, form butter into a log shape, then wrap and chill. Bring to cool room temperature to serve.
• Prepare the fish: Put flour in a low bowl or pie plate and season with salt, pepper and cayenne.
• Season fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Dip each fillet in seasoned flour on both sides, shaking off excess, and transfer to a large plate.
• Put 2 large skillets over medium-high heat and film bottoms with oil. When oil is hot, carefully place 2 fillets in each pan. (Alternatively, work in batches with 1 pan.)
• Reduce heat to medium and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, until fish is nicely browned on one side. Flip fillets with a spatula and cook for 2 minutes more, until fish flakes easily when probed.
• Transfer fish to warm platter or individual warmed plates. With a paring knife, cut herb butter into 8 thin slices and lay 2 slices atop each fillet. Sprinkle with extra herb blossoms, if you wish, and serve immediately.

MUSTARD LEMON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine lemon juice, oil, mustard, sugar, salt and pepper.
• Place chicken in single layer in non-aluminum baking dish. Pour lemon-mustard marinade over chicken. Turn to coat.
• Refrigerate, covered 30-45 minutes, turning once.
• Broil chicken on broiler pan with oven rack 5 inches from heat for 25-30 minutes or until no longer pink.
• Turn and baste every 5 minutes while cooking.

FLAVORFUL FLOUNDER FOR THE OVEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Season both sides of flounder fillets with salt. Place into the prepared baking dish. Brush 1 tablespoon lemon juice over fillets.
• Mix remaining lemon juice, Parmesan cheese, melted butter, mayonnaise, and green onions in a bowl; spoon over the fillets.
• Bake flounder in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Switch oven to broil; broil fillets until the tops are just browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
