Sizzling Flounder Recipe 465 Food

FLOUNDER MILANESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F and place a sheet pan in the oven.
• Dry the fish on both sides with paper towels. Combine the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper on a dinner plate. In a low, shallow bowl, whisk the eggs with 1 tablespoon water. Put the bread crumbs on another plate. Dredge the fish on both sides in the seasoned flour and dust off the excess. Dip both sides into the egg mixture and, finally, dredge both sides in the bread crumbs.
• Heat 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and cook 2 fillets at a time over medium to medium-high heat for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Transfer the fish in one layer to the sheet pan in the oven. Add more butter and oil and cook the rest of the fillets, transferring them to the sheet pan as they're done. Toss the arugula with enough Lemon Vinaigrette to moisten. Place one fillet on each plate and pile the arugula salad on top. Heat the capers in the saute pan for 30 seconds and sprinkle over the fish and salad. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan, a squeeze of lemon juice, and the fleur de sel. Serve hot.
• In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.

SIZZLING FLOUNDER RECIPE - (4.6/5)

Steps:

• Place 1 oven rack 5 inches from heat; place a second rack in middle of oven. Combine Parmesan cheese and paprika. Season fish with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 450°. Heat butter in a broiler-safe 13- x 9-inch baking dish in oven 8 minutes or until butter is melted and beginning to brown. Place fish in hot butter, skin sides up. Bake at 450° on middle oven rack 10 minutes. Carefully flip fish, and baste with pan juices. Sprinkle with lemon juice and Parmesan cheese mixture. Bake 5 more minutes or just until fish flakes with a fork. Remove from oven; increase oven temperature to broil. Broil fish on oven rack 5 inches from heat 2 to 3 minutes or until bubbly and golden brown.

QUICK AND EASY GRILLED FLOUNDER FILLETS

Steps:

• Brush each skinned filet on both sides with olive oil.
• Dust BOTH sides with cyanine pepper, smoked paprika and sea salt to taste.
• Place the filets in a fish basket.
• Put the basket on a PRE HEATED, HOT grill.
• Cooking times will depend on the thickness of the fish.
• For a 1/2 inch filet, I use 90 seconds per side, then repeat for a total time of 6 minutes and the edges just turning golden.
• Don't wait till the flesh flakes or it's over cooked and will probably be dry.
• Enjoy with your favorite sides!

BAKED FLOUNDER AND EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pour butter in a 13-by-9-inch metal baking pan. Place fish in pan and turn to coat with butter. Season with about half the salt and paprika, and plenty of black pepper.
• Bake for 2 to 4 minutes, then add eggs (if you like runny eggs, add them after 3 or 4 minutes; for medium-firm but still slightly runny eggs, add them after 2 minutes, and for very firm eggs, you can add them along with the fish at the beginning). Crack eggs into pan in the corners; eggs should land next to, not on top of fish. Season eggs with remaining salt, paprika and more pepper. Continue baking until fish is just opaque and eggs are lightly set, 7 to 8 minutes more.
• Combine scallions, parsley and capers, if using. Transfer fish and eggs to serving plates; garnish with caper mixture.

BROILED FLOUNDER (SO EASY!)

Steps:

• Line a shallow baking pan with aluminum foil. Lightly brush foil with small amount of butter.
• Arrange fish fillets on foil. Brush fillets with remaining butter. Sprinkle Old Bay Seasoning on fillets.
• Broil five inches from heat 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Squeeze lemon wedges over fillets.

FLOUNDER FRANCAISE OR CHICKEN FRANCAISE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat the oil and 1 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
• Place the flour and all the seasonings in a plastic bag and shake to blend.
• Place the beaten eggs in a shallow dish.
• When the skillet is good and hot, put the flounder fillets in the bag one at a time and then dip in the egg. Coat them completely with the egg and place in skillet. The egg should sizzle immediately. If it doesn't, the oil isn't hot enough.
• Save 1 tablespoon of the flour mixture for the sauce.
• Fry over medium heat until brown on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add extra butter if you need to.
• Remove from skillet, keep warm.
• Discard any oil left in skillet and add the butter and the 1 tbsp of seasoned flour reserved from the flounder. Whisk until smooth. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients, stirring constantly until well blended. Bring to boil and cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently. If the sauce thickens too much, add more water- just 1 tsp at a time until you achieve the desired consistency.
• To serve place flounder over a bed of buttered rice (or whatever you're using) and pour a little sauce over each fillet. Garnish with lemon slices and parsley.
