Parmesan Pesto Crusted Flounder Recipes

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 MEDITERRANEAN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Plunge tomatoes into the boiling water and immediately remove to a medium bowl of ice water; drain. Remove and discard skins from tomatoes. Chop tomatoes and set aside.
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; saute onion until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, garlic and Italian seasoning; cook until tomatoes are tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in olives, wine, capers, lemon juice, and 1/2 the basil. Reduce heat, blend in Parmesan cheese, and cook until the mixture is reduced to a thick sauce, about 15 minutes.
• Place flounder in a shallow baking dish. Pour sauce over the fillets and top with remaining basil leaves.
• Bake 12 minutes in the preheated oven, until fish is easily flaked with a fork.
