Yummy baked flounder

Hi everyone

I picked up a couple of fresh whole flounder today. I love this fish and went for a simple recipe.

Ingredients

2 flounder
2 tablespoons flour (optional)
1 each tablespoon of butter and olive oil
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 tablespoon paprika
a good slosh of white wine
a lemon sliced
a few slices of red onion
a handful of capers drained and rinsed
salt and pepper

Heat the oven to 180 degrees.

Make sure the flounders are rinsed clean and patted dry with a paper towel. Mix the melted butter wine and paprika together and set aside. 

If you are doing keto skip this step. Spread the flour on a dinner plate and dredge the fish in the flour on both sides. Meanwhile melt the tablespoon of butter andolive oil in a hot pan till frothy.  Add the fish and fry till lightly brown on both sides.

Place the fish in a roasting dish skin side down. Place the lemon and onion slices on the fish and sprinkle over the capers. Pour the paprika sauce over the fish and season.  Place in the oven for 15 mins and then pull out and rest. Check seasoning and fish should just come away from the bone.

Serve with steamed beans and crusty bread (again if not doing keto)

Enjoy
