Sole Meuniere image

This is lovely with it's buttery-lemony sauce. Don't make this dish for a crowd, because you should eat it straight away and two soles are about all that will fit into the average non-stick frying pan. From the book "Bistro, French country recipes for home cooks".

Time 15m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

plain flour (enough to coat the fish)
2 fillets of sole (about 300g, skinned and cleaned)
40 g unsalted butter
2 tablespoons sunflower oil
fine sea salt
1/2 freshly squeezed lemon, juice of
flat leaf parsley, finely chopped
1/2 lemon, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Put some flour on a large place, add the fish, cover with the flour on both sides and shake off the excess.
  • Reserve 2 TBs of the butter. Heat the oil and remaining butter over medium high heat in a nonstick frying pan large enough to hold both fish side by side. When it sizzles, add the sole and cook for about 3 minutes. Turn them over and cook on the other side for 3 minutes. Sprinkle the first side with salt while the second side is cooking.
  • When the fish is cooked through, transfer to warmed dinner plates and season the second side.
  • Return the frying pan to the heat, add the remaining 2 TBS butter and melt over high heat. When it begins to sizzle, lower the heat and add the lemon juice. Cook, scraping the pan for about 10 seconds; do not let the butter burn. Pour this sauce over the fish and sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately with sliced lemon.
