PAN-SEARED SOLE WITH A WHITE WINE MUSTARD SAUCE AND ZUCCHINI FRITTERS AND RICE ALMANDINE WITH CRANBERRIES
Steps:
- Remove skin the sole fillets with a knife, leaving only the white flesh of the fish. Season each fillet on both sides with salt and pepper. In a large saute pan, heat just enough olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan, over high heat. Place the sole fillets in the pan and sear both sides until they are slightly brown and cooked through. Top each fillet with the white wine mustard sauce and diced green olives. Plate with Zucchini Fritters and Rice Almandine.
- In a medium sized saute pan, reduce the wine by 1/2 over medium-high heat. Add the mustard and the cream and stir thoroughly until the flavors have combined.
- Thoroughly clean the skin of the zucchini. With a standing grater, shred the zucchini and place in colander to drain the water. Add salt, to taste. In a medium sized bowl, combine the egg, breadcrumbs, and garlic. Add the zucchini to the bowl and toss until it is covered with the breadcrumb mixture. Form the mixture into small patties. In a large saute pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat, and add the patties to the pan. Cook the fritters until both sides are browned and crispy.
- In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a rolling boil. Add the rice to the pot and reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and allow the rice to simmer until all of the water is absorbed. In a small pan, saute the cranberries and almonds in butter over medium heat. Add the cranberries and the almonds to the rice before serving.

Tips:
- For the best results, use a thick cut of steak, at least 1 inch thick. This will help to ensure that the steak is cooked evenly and remains juicy.
- Make sure the steak is at room temperature before cooking. This will help it to cook more evenly.
- Sear the steak in a very hot skillet. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak, while keeping the inside juicy.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet. If you are cooking multiple steaks, cook them in batches so that they have plenty of room to sear.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender.
- For the pan sauce, use a good quality bourbon. This will help to add flavor to the sauce.
- Add the thyme to the pan sauce at the end of cooking. This will help to preserve its flavor.
- For the rice pilaf, use a long grain rice. This type of rice will cook up light and fluffy.
- Add the cranberries and almonds to the rice pilaf at the end of cooking. This will help to add flavor and texture to the dish.
