Description

Ina Garten Meuniere Sole is a dish where sole fillets are lightly dredged in flour, sautéed until golden, and then finished with a rich, tangy sauce made from butter, lemon juice, and parsley. This preparation highlights the delicate flavor of the sole, making it a refined and delicious meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 sole fillets
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 2 lemons)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the sole: Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. Dredge in flour: Place the flour on a large plate. Dredge each fillet in the flour, shaking off the excess.
  3. Heat the skillet: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until it starts to brown.
  4. Cook the sole: Add the sole fillets to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and just cooked through. Transfer to a warm plate.
  5. Make the sauce: In the same skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the lemon juice and parsley, stirring to combine. Cook for about 1 minute, until the sauce is fragrant and slightly thickened.
  6. Finish the dish: Pour the sauce over the cooked sole fillets. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
