Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 whole Dover sole (about 1 pound each), trimmed, scaled, and cleaned
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons safflower oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon capers, drained
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Sole: Heat a saute pan over medium-high. Season both sides of fish with salt and pepper. Place flour in a shallow dish. Dredge each fish in flour, turning and pressing lightly to coat. Shake off excess and place on a platter.
  • Swirl half of oil and butter in pan and, when foam subsides, place 1 fish in pan, white skin-side down. Saute until browned on first side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn fish over carefully and saute until other side is crisp and golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a serving plate.
  • Repeat with remaining oil and butter to saute remaining fish, then transfer it to another plate.
  • Beurre noisette: Sprinkle half of parsley on each fish. Heat butter in a medium saucepan over high, swirling to melt. Cook until starting to brown, then remove from heat, and, as butter darkens to a hazelnut color, toss in capers and lemon juice; swirl to combine. Pour beurre noisette over fish and serve.
