EASY GARLIC PARMESAN BAKED FLOUNDER RECIPE (20 MINS)

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Pat the fish dry and season it well with kosher salt and black pepper on both sides. Arrange the fish in a large pan and add the zucchini and onions next to it and season them with salt and pepper.
• In a small mixing bowl, add the garlic, spices, lemon juice, and olive oil. Whisk to combine.
• Pour the sauce all over the fish and vegetables.
• Bake in the heated oven for 7 to 10 minutes, then carefully remove the pan and sprinkle the grated parmesan all over the fish and vegetables. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 3 to 5 minutes or so until the fish is flaky and the cheese has melted some. (Flounder fillets are thin and should not take too long to cook. Be careful not to overcook them).

FLOUNDER FILLETS FRENCH STYLE

Steps:

• Place the fillets on a flat surface and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Break the egg into a shallow wide dish and add salt, pepper and water. Beat well to blend.
• Spoon the flour onto a flat dish.
• Dip the fillets in the flour. Coat well on all sides, but shake off excess flour.
• Dip the fillets in the egg mixture to coat well on all sides. Drain off excess egg mixture.
• Heat enough oil in a skillet to coat the bottom lightly. Add a few pieces of fish at one time in a single layer without crowding. Let cook about 1 1/2 minutes or until golden brown on one side. Turn the pieces carefully and cook on the second side about one minute or until golden brown. Carefully transfer the pieces to a warm serving platter.
• Continue cooking the fish a few pieces at a time, adding more oil as necessary.
• Wipe the skillet and add the butter. Cook until the butter is melted and starts to brown. Add the lemon juice. Pour the butter over the fish. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

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.
