We love Flounder around here
Serves 4
For the lemon sauce: 3 large lemons 1/4 cup sugar 1/4 cup water
For the flounder: 4 6-ounce flounder fillets 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
For the lemon sauce: Bring the sugar and water to a boil. Remove from the heat and cool. Juice the lemons and strain. Add half of the sugar syrup to the lemon juice. Add more sugar syrup until a pleasant balance of sweetness and tartness is reached. Cool to room temperature.
For the flounder: Season the flounder fillets with salt and pepper, then drizzle with olive oil. Place a sauté pan large enough to accommodate all the fillets over medium-high heat. Add the flounder and lower the heat to medium. Cook until well-browned on one side, about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets over and cook 1 more minute. Serve the flounder topped with the lemon sauce.
