Time 15m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 bunch asparagus (about 12 ounces), woody ends removed, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
3 teaspoons olive oil
1 cup lump crab meat, picked over for shells
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 3-to-4-ounce flounder fillets or 2 8-ounce fillets, split down the center

Steps:

  • Bring a medium-size pot of water to a boil. Add the asparagus and blanch until tender, but not soft, about 3 minutes. Drain and place under cold running water until cool. In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the lime juice and 2 teaspoons of the olive oil. Toss in the asparagus and crab meat and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Place the flour on a plate and season to taste with salt and pepper. Lightly dust the flounder on both sides with the seasoned flour. Heat the remaining teaspoon of olive oil in a large, heavy nonstick skillet over high heat. Place the flounder in the pan and saute on one side for about 90 seconds. Turn the fish over and immediately divide the asparagus and crab mixture evenly among each fillet, spooning the mixture into a mound. Remove from the heat. Cover the pan and let stand for 1 minute. Divide among 4 plates and serve immediately.

This recipe was a waste of time and money. The flounder was dry and tough, and the crab vinaigrette was watery and flavorless. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

This dish was very bland. The flounder was tasteless and the crab vinaigrette didn't have much flavor. I wouldn't make this recipe again.

The flounder was a bit overcooked, but the crab vinaigrette was delicious. I would make this recipe again, but I would be more careful not to overcook the fish.

This dish was a bit too fishy for my taste, but the crab vinaigrette was very good. I would try this recipe again with a different type of fish.

I was a bit skeptical about the crab vinaigrette, but it was surprisingly good! It added a nice tanginess to the dish that really brought out the flavor of the flounder. I'll definitely be making this again.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit! The flounder is always cooked perfectly and the crab vinaigrette is to die for. I love that it's a light and healthy dish, but still feels special enough for a dinner party.
