Ingredients
  

  • 4 sole or trout fillets
  • 1/3 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • Zest from 1 lemon
  • 3 Tablespoons chopped parsley
  • Additional salt at serving

Instructions
 

  • Mix flour salt and pepper in pie plate. Pat fillets dry then dip in flour mixture to coat.
  • Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large frying pan. Fry two fillets about 2 minutes until golden then turn. Add an additional tablespoon butter and half of the lemon and lemon juice. Cook an additional 2 minutes until cooked through. Remove fish and sauce to a plate and keep warm in oven.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.
  • Plate the fillets, sprinkle with parsley and re-salt lightly before serving (the re-salting was surprisingly important to the final flavor).
