Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Season the Dover sole fillets with salt and black pepper on both sides. Dredge each fillet lightly in all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.

  2. 2

    Cook the Fish

    In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the floured fillets to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    In the same skillet, add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Allow it to melt and cook until it turns a light golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Return the cooked Dover sole to the skillet, spoon the sauce over the fish, and let it warm through for a minute. Serve immediately with additional lemon wedges if desired.
