If you are looking for a tasty way to replace the common breaded and fried sole, this is a wonderful healthy and quick option. The liquid that you poach the sole in becomes an amazing sauce that goes great with a side of rice and vegetables.

2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup lemon juice
½ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon paprika
2 sole fillets

Steps:

  • In a medium frying pan, bring all ingredients, except the sole, to a simmer.

  • Increase the heat to medium-high and boil uncovered until liquid thickens (approx. 5 minutes).
  • Plate sole with rice and your favourite cooked vegetable. Spoon sauce over sole and vegetables. Time to enjoy.

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 fillets of lemon sole
1 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup all-purpose flour, for dredging
1/4 cup capers, drained and rinsed
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup chicken stock
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (from about 1 1/2 lemons)
1/2 teaspoon Calabrian chili paste
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Using a paper towel, dry the sole fillets very well. Season the fish evenly with 1 teaspoon salt. Heat a medium skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter to the pan. When the butter is fully melted and the bubbles have subsided, dredge both sides of 2 fillets in the flour. Shake off the excess flour and add the fish to the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium high. Cook the fillets until beginning to brown around the edges on the first side, 2 to 3 minutes. Using a fish spatula, flip the fish gently and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove the fillets to a plate and continue with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon butter and fish.
  • When all 4 fillets are cooked and out of the skillet, add the capers and garlic and cook over medium heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Add the chicken stock and lemon juice and stir, scraping up the bits from the bottom. Season with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Simmer for about 2 minutes to reduce the liquid slightly. Finish the sauce by stirring in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, chili paste and oregano. Spoon the sauce over the fish, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

OVEN-POACHED PACIFIC SOLE WITH LEMON CAPER SAUCE



Oven-Poached Pacific Sole With Lemon Caper Sauce image

A fish piccata of sorts, this dish is easy to make and the lemon-caper sauce marries well with delicate varieties like sole, fluke or flounder, as well as more robust fish like swordfish. Start by laying fish fillets out in a baking dish and seasoning them with salt and pepper. Finely chop some shallots and briefly cook them in a skillet before adding wine. Pour the wine and shallots over the fish, cover with foil and bake until opaque and the fish pulls apart easily when gently probed with a fork. Meanwhile, whisk together garlic, capers, lemon juice and olive oil. When the fish emerges from the oven, pour the liquid from the dish back into the skillet to make a pan sauce. Reduce it to about 1/4 cup - thicker than you may imagine - stirring all the while. Add the garlic-caper mixture and some chopped parsley, whisk together and serve on top of the fillets, the mild flesh of the fish bathing in the bright, brawny flavors of the sauce.

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 40m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds Pacific sole or flounder fillets
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons finely chopped shallot
1 cup dry white wine (you can also use rosé; the sauce will have a pink hue)
1 plump garlic clove, minced or puréed (more to taste)
2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 to 4 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Oil or butter one or two baking dishes large enough to accommodate the fish fillets in one layer. Lay the fish in the dish(es) and season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a small or medium skillet and add the shallot. Cook, stirring, until tender and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the wine to the pan, bring to a boil, and pour the wine and shallots over the fish. Return the skillet to the stove (make sure the heat is off) for later use. Cover the baking dish with foil and place in the oven. Bake 8 to 10 minutes, or 5 minutes for each 1/2 inch of thickness, until the fish is opaque and pulls apart easily with a fork.
  • While the fish is in the oven, whisk together the garlic, capers, lemon juice and olive oil. You can also mash the garlic in a mortar and pestle and work in the capers, lemon juice and olive oil, though I prefer the capers chopped, even some intact, and not puréed.
  • When the fish is done remove it from the oven and carefully transfer to a platter or plates. Cover and keep warm. Pour the liquid in the baking dish into the skillet and turn the heat on high. Reduce, stirring often, to about 1/4 cup - it should be thick - and stir in the garlic and caper mixture and the parsley. Whisk together, taste and adjust seasoning, pour over the fish and serve.

POACHED HALIBUT, CREAMY CELERY SAUCE & TOMATO RELISH



Poached Halibut, Creamy Celery Sauce & Tomato Relish image

This is healthy change from baked or fried fish. Fresh halibut is a wonderful firm, mild fish and poaching just highlights that. Now if you can't find Halibut, Cod will also work, and if you can't find fresh fish, frozen will be ok. Obviously not as good, but today there is some very good frozen fish on the market. Serve with a quinoa salad and maybe some micro or spring greens for an extremely healthy meal.

Categories     Sauces

Time 50m

Yield 4 Individual Servings, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

4 halibut fillets (you could also use Cod)
2 lemons, cut in wedges
3 garlic cloves, smashed (not minced)
1 cup white wine
3 cups vegetable broth
3 sprigs fresh thyme
10 whole black peppercorns (lightly cracked)
3 celery ribs, cut in 1-inch pieces
1 large shallot, minced
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour
1 cup milk
5 tablespoons heavy cream
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, fine diced
salt
pepper
3 -4 plum tomatoes, lightly seeded and diced
1 tablespoon capers
2 tablespoons fresh basil, fine diced
1/2 teaspoon olive oil
pepper

Steps:

  • Celery Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the celery and add enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce to medium heat, cover, and cook until the celery is tender. The celery will be pureed, so you want it tender, but NOT "mushy." It should take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Fish and Broth -- As the celery cooks, prepare your fish and the broth. Remove the fish from the refrigerator so it comes to room temperature. For the broth, In a medium size sauce pan (enough to add the 4 fillets and you want the broth to cover the fish), add the lemons, garlic cloves (give them a light smash with the back of your knife or with the palm of your hand), ginger, wine, broth, thyme sprigs, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil and then immediately turn off the heat and cover. The broth will be ready in just a couple of minutes.
  • Celery Sauce: Drain the celery and reserve just a teaspoon or two of the water. Transfer the celery to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth, you can use a little of the water if necessary. Just let it sit for a few minutes as you make the cream sauce.
  • In that same pan you cooked the celery in, add the butter and shallots and cook a minute on medium heat. Then add in the flour and cook another minute to get rid of the flour taste. Slowly add in the milk and heavy cream and whisk until well blended and the sauce begins to thicken. Add in the celery, fresh thyme, salt and pepper to taste. The sauce is done. Just reduce to low and set on the back burner.
  • Fish -- Bring your broth back up to medium heat, you don't want it boiling, just a medium simmer. Add the fish, reduce to medium low and cover. Halibut will take about 8 minutes per 1" of fish. The cooking time will depend on the size of your fish fillets.
  • Tomato Relish -- As the fish cooks, make the tomato relish. Add the chopped tomatoes, capers, basil, olive oil, and pepper to a small bowl and mix until well combined.
  • Serve -- This is how I love to serve this dish. A small bed of micro greens or spring greens, then the fish topped with the celery sauce and then the tomato relish. But you can omit the greens if you want. I have also served the sauce on the bottom of the plate with the tomato relish on top and the micro greens on the side. Either way -- ENJOY!

ORANGE AND FENNEL POACHED SOLE



Orange and Fennel Poached Sole image

Categories     Citrus     Fish     Poach     Quick & Easy     Low Cal     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Orange     Fennel     White Wine     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
2 shallots, chopped fine
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds
2 strips of orange zest, removed with a vegetable peeler
1/2 cup water
2 sole or orange roughy fillets (about 1 pound)
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a skillet boil the orange juice, the wine, and the vinegar with the shallots, the fennel seeds, and the zest, shaking the skillet, until most of the liquid is evaporated. Add the water, bring the mixture to a boil, and in it poach the sole, covered, at a bare simmer for 10 minutes. Transfer the sole with a slotted spatula to 2 plates and keep it warm, covered. Boil the poaching liquid until it is reduced to about 1/3 cup, remove the skillet from the heat, and swirl in the butter. Season the sauce with salt and pepper and pour it through a fine sieve over the sole.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Sole Fillets: Opt for fresh, firm, and evenly-colored sole fillets. Avoid any with signs of spoilage or discoloration.
  • Mise en Place: Prepare all ingredients and equipment beforehand to ensure a smooth cooking process.
  • Seasoning: Season the sole fillets generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This enhances their natural flavor.
  • Cooking Temperature: Maintain a gentle simmer throughout the cooking process. High heat can easily overcook and toughen the delicate sole fillets.
  • Don't Overcook: Sole fillets cook quickly, so be attentive and remove them from the poaching liquid as soon as they are opaque and flaky.
  • Celery Sauce: Make sure the celery is finely diced to ensure a smooth and flavorful sauce. Sauté the celery until softened before adding the liquid ingredients.
  • Lemon Juice: Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the celery sauce for a bright and tangy flavor.
  • Garnish: Before serving, garnish the poached sole fillets with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an appealing presentation.

Conclusion:

Poached fillet of sole in celery sauce is a classic French dish that showcases the delicate flavor of sole fillets.
