My daughter has been wanting to try fish recipes but does not like a real 'fishy' taste. She found this recipe in the April 2005 edition of the All You magazine. It is served with shredded zucchini and sliced new potatoes. ( I was informed to add that too) :)

PAN-SAUTEED SOLE

We used lemon sole, a flaky, mild-tasting white fish. At the market, look for flat fish such as sole or flounder; Pacific-caught are the most sustainable. Tilapia works well, too. Serve it with steamed new potatoes and sauteed spinach.

Tips:

  • Choose the right sole fillets: Look for fillets that are firm and have a slightly translucent appearance. Avoid fillets that are thin or have a slimy texture.
  • Use a good quality non-stick pan: This will help prevent the sole from sticking and will ensure an even cook.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking multiple fillets, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the sole over medium-high heat: This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the fish while keeping the inside moist and flaky.
  • Don't flip the sole too often: Only flip the sole once, when it is golden brown on the bottom. Flipping it too often can break the fish apart.
  • Use a thin layer of oil: This will help to prevent the sole from sticking to the pan and will also help to create a crispy crust.
  • Season the sole with salt and pepper: This is a simple but effective way to add flavor to the fish.
  • Serve the sole immediately: Sole is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to ensure that the fish is crispy and flaky.

Conclusion:

Pan-fried sole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. By following the tips above, you can create a crispy and flaky sole that is sure to impress your friends and family. Serve the sole with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
