FISH MEUNIERE WITH CAPERS
This is from the America's Test Kitchen Cookbook, 2006 edition. This kind of made me think of chicken piccata, only made with fish. Use a flatfish, like sole or flounder for best results.

Steps:
- For the fish: Set oven to 200 degrees, and place a heatproof plate in the oven.
- Place flour in a baking dish. Season dry fish fillets with salt and pepper, set aside for 5 minutes or until moisture shows on the surface.
- Coat fish with flour, shake off any excess, and set aside on a baking sheet.
- In a large (12 inch) non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over high heat until shimmering.
- Add 1 tablespoon of butter and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. Add two fillets skin side up, to the skillet, and reduce heat to medium high. Cook the fish without distubing it, about 3 minutes, or until the edges are opaque and the bottom is golden.
- Carefully flip the fish (you may need two spatulas to do this without breaking it), and continue to cook for another two minutes or until the thickest part flakes when a toothpick is inserted.
- Transfer the fish to the oven to keep warm while you cook the remaining fillets.
- Wipe the pan clean, and repeat steps 6 through 11 with the other two fillets.
- For the browned butter: Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a stainless steel skillet over medium high heat until the butter melts.
- Continue to cook, swirling the pan, until the butter is golden brown and smells nutty, about 1 - 1 1/2 minutes more. Remove from heat.
- To serve: Remove fish from the oven and sprinkle with parsley. Add the lemon juice and capers to the browned butter, swirl to combine. Taste butter sauce, add salt or pepper to taste. Spoon the butter sauce over the fish, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Check the fish for small bones and pull any out with tweezers. In a large shallow bowl, season the flour with a little salt and black pepper. Toss the fish in the flour, coating well, and shake off any excess.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Add the fish and cook, skin-side down, for 2 mins. Use a fish slice or large spatula to turn, then cook the other side for 1-2 mins until golden.
- Remove the fish to a warmed plate, then season. Wipe out the pan with kitchen paper. Return the pan to the heat, then add the butter. Heat until it melts and begins to turn a light brown, then mix in the lemon juice and capers, if using. Swirl in the pan for a few secs, return fish to the pan and spoon over any juices. Serve immediately.

- Meanwhile, season the fish on the meat side with salt and pepper. Lightly dredge in flour and shake off excess.
- When the pan is good and hot, add the oil followed immediately by 1 tablespoon of the butter. As soon as the foaming subsides, place the fish in pan, flesh side down. Jiggle the pan for the first 10 seconds of cooking to keep the fish from sticking, then continue to cook until a golden crust forms on the fish, about 2 minutes. If the fat in the pan starts smoking around the edges, drop the heat a bit.
- Using a slotted spatula or fish turner, carefully turn the fish away from you and again jiggle the pan for the first few seconds. Continue to cook until the skin turns golden brown, about 2 more minutes. Remove to a warm plate.
