BROILED FLOUNDER (SO EASY!)



Broiled Flounder (So Easy!) image

This is one of the easiest ways to prepare fish. We ate lots of flounder growning up. I say that tongue-in-cheek. We actually did eat lots of fish, but for some reason when she was really little my baby sister declared the only fish she liked was flounder. So whenever we had fish, no matter what kind it was, if somewhat asked what kind of fish it was we always answered, "Flounder (wink,wink)."

Time 15m

Yield 1 Fish, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 whole flounder
1/4 cup butter
1 lemon
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon salt

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.

BROILED FLOUNDER (WW)

This is from an old WW cookbook (Weight Watchers 365 Day Menu Cookbook), before they had points, but I think if following the WW flex plan this is about 3 points per serving. I also think this will work for other fish -- although the point value may change along with the cooking time if using a thicker fish. This is good served with baked potatoes and salad for a very low point meal that no one will ever guess is Weight Watchers. Although this serves only 2 - it is easily adjusted to serve as many servings as needed.
