EASY CHEESY SOLE FLORENTINE



Easy Cheesy Sole Florentine image

I made this for my Mum last night, and it was awesome. My husband who is not a big fish fan really enjoyed it as well. I used a packaged rice pilaf but you could probably use long grain and wild rice, or other flavours that you like with a chicken or vegetable flavour base. You can use any type of white fish fillets, I made it as shown below.

SOLE FLORENTINE



Sole Florentine image

This dish is my "Copy Cat" version from a local restaurant, Corvo's, in Saranac Lake, NY. I like it better than the Florentine recipes with cream sauces.

Provided by Graymare47 252632

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 35m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb sole fillets or 1 lb flounder fillets
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 lemons, juice of, divided
2 eggs, beaten
2 teaspoons water
1/4 lb butter
10 ounces fresh spinach, washed and well drained

Steps:

  • Melt 4 tbls butter in a large frying pan, over medium low heat. Add the juice of one lemon.
  • Put flour on a paper plate.
  • In a separate low dish, mix the water with the beaten eggs.
  • Dust the filets with flour, then dip both sides in the beaten egg.
  • Fry gently on each side until fish laked easily.
  • Remove fish to a heated plate.
  • Add the rest of the butter and lemon juice to the frying pan.
  • Add the spinach, turning gently until just "wilted".
  • Serve spinach under each serving of fish.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet. This will help prevent the fish from sticking and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. If you're cooking multiple pieces of fish, make sure there is enough space between them so that they can cook properly.
  • Cook the fish over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
  • Baste the fish with the melted butter as it cooks. This will help to keep the fish moist and flavorful.
  • Don't overcook the fish. The fish is done cooking when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the fish immediately. Sole Florentine au Gratin is best enjoyed hot out of the oven.

Sole Florentine au Gratin is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you serve it as a main course or a side dish, it is sure to impress your guests.
