BROILED FLOUNDER

Steps:

• Heat brolier on high.
• Score the fish in two or three spots on the dark side.
• Melt butter and worcestershire sauce with juce from half a lemon and garlic.
• Rub fish down with salt and pepper on both sides, depending on the size of your fish you might need more or less salt and pepper.
• Put fish under the broiler for 3 minuets.
• Slide the fish out of the broiler and paint it with butter and garlic sauce every minuet or so untill the fish is done. I follow this rule: if you can stick a toothpick into the widest part of the fish, then place the toothpick to your lips and the toothpick is warm, your fish is done.
• When fish is done drizzle with the juice from the other half of your lemon.
• I like putting the whole fish on the table and let everybody digin.

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.

• Mix remaining lemon juice, Parmesan cheese, melted butter, mayonnaise, and green onions in a bowl; spoon over the fillets.
• Bake flounder in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Switch oven to broil; broil fillets until the tops are just browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
