1
Season the Fish
Pat the fluke fillets dry with a paper towel. Season both sides of the fillets with salt and black pepper.
2
Prepare Garnish
Chop the fresh parsley finely and set aside. Cut lemon into wedges for serving.

3
Heat the Pan
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4
Sear the Fish
Gently place the seasoned fluke fillets in the hot oil, skin-side down if applicable. Sear for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
5
Add Butter
Carefully flip the fillets and add the butter to the pan. Allow the butter to melt and baste the fillets for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
6
Check for Doneness
The fluke is done when it flakes easily with a fork and is opaque in the center.

7
Plate the Dish
Transfer the cooked fluke fillets to serving plates. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
