Flounder makes for a quick and light dinner for two on any given night of the week. It takes no time to broil and really requires no marinade if you cook it with a light sauce. Yellow rice, cream spinach or broiled tomatoes make for delicious side dishes.
For a variation, add a little mustard to the cheese mix.
Serves 4
Ingredients
4 (6-ounce) flounder fillets
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup butter, softened
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 finely chopped green onions
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
Directions
Preheat broiler.
Place fish flat or in rolls in a greased, shallow baking pan . Sprinkle with lemon juice and Old Bay.
In a small bowl combine Parmesan cheese, butter, mayonnaise, green onions, salt and hot pepper sauce; set aside.
Broil flounder for 4 to 6 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove from oven and spread cheese mixture on top. Broil an additional 30 seconds, or until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly. Serve warm.
Love flounder! Husband catches it all the time at our beach house, so we eat it often. Can't wait to give him this recipe to try. I know we'll enjoy it!
