Crispy Fish With Brown Butter Sauce And Kohlrabi Salad Food

FISH IN BROWN BUTTER SAUCE (SOLE MEUNIèRE)

Steps:

• Pat fish dry. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dredge in flour, and knock off excess. Set aside.
• Heat oil and butter for the fish in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until foam subsides. Add fish and cook, turning halfway through, until browned and cooked through. This will take about 2-3 minutes total. Do not overcook.
• Transfer fish to a plate. Discard fat from skillet and reduce heat to medium-low.
• Add butter, and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes. Remove skillet from heat and add parsley, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Stir to combine.
• Pour sauce over fish. Serve with lemon wedges.

COD WITH BROWN BUTTER LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the peels from the lemons, revealing the flesh. Cut the segments free from the membranes, then dice and place in a bowl. Squeeze any remaining juice from the membranes into the bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter and begin to cook, stirring, until the butter begins to brown. Add the brioche, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, continually tossing and swirling the brioche until evenly toasted, about 4 minutes. Remove the croutons to a plate and let cool. Wipe out the pan.
• Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper. Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter and the oil and begin to cook over the heat, stirring. Add the fish and cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fish and continue to cook, basting occasionally with the butter from the pan, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the fish to a plate. Wipe out the pan.
• Turn the pan to medium heat and add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Let melt, then add the capers and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Continue to cook until the butter browns, then add the wine, lemon juice and segments and parsley. Swirl together. Spoon the sauce over the fish and garnish with the croutons.
