Tips:

  • Choose the freshest flounder you can find. Fresh fish will have a mild, sweet flavor and a firm texture. Avoid fish that is discolored or has a slimy texture.
  • Use a large skillet for frying the fish. This will help to prevent the fish from overcrowding and sticking to the pan.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat before adding the fish. This will help to sear the fish and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
  • Cook the fish for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through. The fish is cooked through when it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the fish immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for flounder include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and a simple salad.
