Perfect recipe for 2 from Julia's Child's Kitchen Wisdom book Ingredients:
4 sole fillets, 1/2 in thick |
3 teaspoons butter |
1 teaspoon oil |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 tablespoon fine flour |
lemon juice |
1 tablespoon chopped parsley |
2 tablespoons capers |
Directions:
1. Season the fish with salt and pepper and turn in flour, shaking off excess. 2. Heat 1 teaspoon butter and 1 teaspoon oil in a pan until the butter foam begins to subside. 3. Lay in the fillets and sauté for about a minute on each side, just until the fish begins to take on a light springiness to the touch. -Do not overcook; if the fish flakes, it is overdone. 4. Remove to a hot platter and sprinkle a tablespoon of minced fresh parsley over the fish. 5. Rapidly wipe the pan clean with paper towels (so the flour residue will not speckle the butter to come – or use a fresh pan). 6. Heat 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in the pan, swishing it about and letting it brown lightly. Remove the pan from heat, squeeze in the juice of half a lemon, and capers before spooning the hot butter over the fish. |
