SOLE MEUNIèRE



Sole Meunière image

The dish that made Julia Child fall in love with French cuisine, sole meunière highlights the simple flavors of fresh fish, butter, lemon and parsley. Fish is the center of the dish, so using a quality fillet is important: A true English Dover sole is preferred. Clarified butter, which takes a few extra minutes to prepare, can take on heat without browning, making it ideal for pan-frying fish. A classic sole meunière is made with a bone-in fillet, but boneless sole is faster and easier. You'll find a recipe for clarified butter here. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup all-purpose flour
6 4-ounce skinless, boneless sole or other thin fish fillets, patted dry
Kosher salt, to taste
Freshly ground white or black pepper, to taste
4 tablespoons clarified butter
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced, at room temperature
3 tablespoons minced parsley
1 lemon, cut into wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200 degrees and place a large oven-safe plate or baking sheet inside.
  • Place flour on a large, shallow plate. Season both sides of fish fillets with salt and pepper to taste. Dredge fish in flour, shaking off excess.

Place half of the fish fillets in the pan and cook until just done, 2 to 3 minutes per side, then transfer to the plate or baking sheet in the oven to keep warm. Add 2 more tablespoons clarified butter to skillet and heat until bubbling, then cook remaining fillets. Wipe out the skillet.
  • Arrange the fish on a warm serving platter. Top with parsley. In reserved skillet, heat remaining 4 tablespoons unsalted butter until bubbling and golden, 1 to 2 minutes, then pour evenly over fillets. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges on the side.

Categories     Milk/Cream     Microwave     Fish     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Lemon     Leek     Gourmet

Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
the white and pale green parts of 2 leeks, split lengthwise, washed well, and sliced thin crosswise (about 2 cups)
1/3 cup dry white wine
2 sole fillets (about 3/4 pound total)
1/3 cup heavy cream
fresh lemon juice to taste
minced fresh parsley leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • In a microwave-safe glass casserole microwave the butter at high power (100%) for 1 minute, or until it is melted. Stir in the leeks and salt to taste and microwave the mixture, covered with the lid, at high power (100%) for 10 minutes, or until the leek is tender. Transfer the leek mixture to a saucepan and add the wine. Season the sole with salt and pepper and fold the fillets, skinned sides in, into thirds. Arrange the fillets in the casserole and microwave them, covered with lid, at high power (100%) for 3 minutes, or until they just flake. While the fish is cooking, boil the leek mixture until almost all the liquid is evaporated. Transfer the fish with a slotted spatula to heated plates and keep it warm, covered with foil. Add the fish liquid remaining in the casserole to the leek mixture and boil the mixture until the liquid is reduced by half. Add the cream and boil the mixture, stirring, until the sauce is thickened slightly. Season the sauce with the lemon juice and salt and pepper, spoon it around the fish, and garnish each serving with the parsley.
