Dad's Fish Scallopine

KatherineKatherine

adapted from James Beard’s Menus for Entertaining

ingredients

  • About 1 1/2 pounds fish fillets (tilapia, flounder or sole)
  • flour
  • 6 tbl. butter
  • 2 tbl. olive oil
  • grated rind of lemon
  • 3 or 4 lemon slices
  • Fresh parsley or tarragon

directions

  • 1

    Dust fish fillets with flour, saute quickly on each side in the butter and oil. (Cook even more quickly per side for flounder or sole since fillets are thin.)

  • 2

    Add the lemon rind, slices and juice and simmer for three to four minutes.

  • 3

    Add a dash of white wine (or vermouth). Adding some capers at this point is a nice touch.)

  • 4

    Sprinkle with chopped parsley or fresh tarragon.
