Delicate sole fillets are lightly floured and pan-seared, then finished with a caper, lemon and butter sauce in this elegant English fish classic. Its low-carb, low-calorie profile makes it a good fit for anyone after a lighter dinner.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Prepare the fish

15 min

Season the sole fillets with salt and pepper and dust them lightly with flour.

2

Pan-fry

10 min

Melt a tablespoon of the butter in a pan and cook the fillets on each side until golden.

3

Keep warm

10 min

Keep the cooked fillets warm in a low oven while you make the sauce.

4

Make the caper sauce

8 min

Melt the remaining butter in the same pan until it foams, add the capers and lemon juice, and simmer for two minutes.

5

Serve

5 min

Plate the fish, spoon the caper sauce over it, and finish with chopped parsley.

Reminder

Do not flip the fillets too often while cooking; delicate sole falls apart easily, so turning each side just once is enough. Allergens: contains gluten (flour) and dairy (butter).

Editor's Note Editörün Notu

If you cannot find capers, finely chopped pickled gherkin in its own brine gives a similar tang — just reduce the added salt accordingly.

Dil balığı filetolarım oldukça inceydi, bu yüzden her yüzünü 1 dakika kısa pişirdim ve tam kıvamında oldu. Kapari sosuna bir tutam da nane ekledim, kendi tarzım için hoş bir varyasyon oldu.
