FILLET OF SOLE WITH LEEK SAUCE



Fillet of Sole with Leek Sauce image

Categories     Milk/Cream     Microwave     Fish     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Lemon     Leek     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
the white and pale green parts of 2 leeks, split lengthwise, washed well, and sliced thin crosswise (about 2 cups)
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 sole fillets (about 3/4 pound total)
1/3 cup heavy cream
fresh lemon juice to taste
minced fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • In a microwave-safe glass casserole microwave the butter at high power (100%) for 1 minute, or until it is melted. Stir in the leeks and salt to taste and microwave the mixture, covered with the lid, at high power (100%) for 10 minutes, or until the leek is tender. Transfer the leek mixture to a saucepan and add the wine. Season the sole with salt and pepper and fold the fillets, skinned sides in, into thirds. Arrange the fillets in the casserole and microwave them, covered with lid, at high power (100%) for 3 minutes, or until they just flake. While the fish is cooking, boil the leek mixture until almost all the liquid is evaporated. Transfer the fish with a slotted spatula to heated plates and keep it warm, covered with foil. Add the fish liquid remaining in the casserole to the leek mixture and boil the mixture until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream and boil the mixture, stirring, until the sauce is thickened slightly. Season the sauce with the lemon juice and salt and pepper, spoon it around the fish, and garnish each serving with the parsley.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Sole: Opt for fresh, firm sole fillets with a mild, sweet flavor. Smaller fillets cook more evenly and are ideal for this recipe.
  • Season Wisely: Enhance the natural flavors of the sole with a simple seasoning of salt and pepper. Additional seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or lemon zest can add depth and complexity.
  • Don't Overcook: Sole is a delicate fish that cooks quickly. Overcooking can result in dry, tough flesh. Cook the sole until it flakes easily with a fork, usually within 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Sauteed Leeks: To achieve tender and flavorful leeks, sauté them slowly over medium heat until they caramelize slightly. This brings out their natural sweetness and adds a delightful texture to the dish.
  • Fresh Tomatoes: Use ripe, juicy tomatoes for the best flavor. Dice them into small pieces to ensure even cooking and distribution throughout the dish.
  • Garnish Elegantly: Before serving, sprinkle some chopped fresh parsley or chives over the dish. This adds a vibrant pop of color and enhances the overall presentation.

Conclusion:

With its delicate flavors and simple preparation, sole with leeks and tomatoes is a delightful dish that showcases the beauty of fresh, seasonal ingredients. Whether you're cooking for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal, this recipe offers a satisfying and elegant culinary experience. Experiment with different herbs and seasonings to create your own unique variations, and don't forget to garnish with fresh herbs for a touch of vibrancy.
