BAKED FLOUNDER FILLETS WITH LEMON-PEPPER VEGETABLES



Baked Flounder Fillets with Lemon-Pepper Vegetables image

Categories     Fish     Bake     Lemon     Carrot     Zucchini     Yellow Squash     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup dry white wine
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 onion, sliced thin
3 carrots, cut into 2-inch julienne strips
1 yellow squash, cut into 2-inch julienne strips
1 zucchini, cut into 2-inch julienne strips
six 6- to 8-ounce flounder fillets, halved lengthwise and seasoned with salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a bowl whisk together the wine, the lemon juice, the parsley, the oil, the pepper, and salt to taste and add the onion. In another bowl toss together the carrots, the squash, and the zucchini, add about 1/4 cup of the liquid from the onion mixture, and toss the mixture well. Spread the onion mixture in the bottom of a greased glass baking dish, 15 by 10 by 2 inches. On a work surface arrange the flounder fillet halves, skinned sides up, beginning with the narrow end roll up each fillet half jelly-roll fashion, and secure each roll with a wooden pick. Arrange the fish rolls, seam sides down and not touching each other, on the onion mixture, put an oiled sheet of parchment or wax paper directly on them, and bake the mixture in the middle of a preheated 400°F. oven for 8 minutes. Spread the vegetable mixture around the rolls and bake the mixture, the fish covered directly with the parchment, for 7 to 12 minutes more, or until the fish just flakes. Transfer the vegetables to a heated platter, arrange the fish rolls on top of them, and spoon the juices over the top.

Tips:

  • For the freshest flounder, choose fillets that are firm and have a mild, briny smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • If you can't find fresh flounder, frozen flounder fillets can be used instead. Just be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • To prevent the flounder from sticking to the pan, make sure the pan is hot before adding the fish. You can also use a nonstick cooking spray.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the flounder. If the pan is too crowded, the fish will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the flounder until it is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Overcooked flounder will be tough and dry.
  • Serve the flounder immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for flounder include rice, roasted vegetables, and steamed broccoli.

Conclusion:

Lemon pepper flounder is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The bright flavors of the lemon and pepper complement the mild flavor of the flounder, and the fish cooks in just minutes. Serve with your favorite sides for a delicious and healthy meal.
