Pan-Seared Sole with Lemon Butter Sauce

Ingredients

• 2 pieces sole fillets
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Cooking instructions

1. Prepare the Sole — Pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels. In a shallow dish, mix the flour with salt and black pepper. Lightly dredge each sole fillet in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess.
2. Heat the Pan — Heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until butter is melted and starts to foam.
3. Pan-Sear the Fish — Place the sole fillets in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and just cooked through. Remove fillets to a warm plate and keep warm.
4. Make Lemon Butter Sauce — Reduce heat to medium. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add lemon juice and stir to combine, cooking for another minute to meld flavors.
5. Serve — Pour the lemon butter sauce over the sole fillets. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately with your choice of sides.
