Sole Meuniere with Browned Butter and Lemon


I'm excited!! I was in Safeway today, trying to figure out dinner and instead of walking straight by the fish section--that (usually) scary looking display case of foreign raw foods to me--I stopped to take a look and see what I can do... :o) After taking a moment, I decided to get some sole. As I fumble over my order with the butcher (same as the guy who handles the meat???), I finally decide on two fair sized fillets and place them carefully in to my basket... and then I walk briskly to the fruits and vegetables section of the market where I feel most comfortable. (haha)

So when I get home, I open up my America's Test Kitchen Cookbook and I find this recipe for Sole Meuniere with Browned Butter and Lemon. Instead of typing out the recipe for you this time... I've provided a link of a very close to the same recipe:

Good luck! No notes on this one, just follow the recipe and you should be fine! I added a bit more seasoning when marinating before breading... it was perfecto! :o)

Fish is a great, healthy protein! I liked this recipe because it doesn't require many ingredients that most people don't already have at home. That means you can prepare it on a whim! What did you make for side dishes? It looked like brown rice and broccoli but I wasn't sure. Good idea to get some carbs in the meal for balance though. Thanks for the link of the recipe. America's Test Kitchen rocks! That must be a good book you have. My last thought is what would you recommend doing differently from the recipe next time that would improve it? Perhaps add minced garlic to the saucepan when browning the butter for another element of flavor?
