Simple Seafood
- 12 cup whole-wheat flour
- 1 pound mild white fish, such as flounder, cod, or sole (wild-caught preferred)
- Salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 13 cup white wine
- Juice of 1 lemon (or less if preferred)
- Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley or capers
- Sprinkle the flour onto a large plate.
- Season the fish with salt and pepper and then dip it in the flour to coat on all sides.
- Transfer to a clean plate.
- In a large saute pan over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Add the coated fish to the pan and cook for several minutes (depending on the thickness of the fish), until the fish is golden brown on the underside.
- Flip and cook until it is golden brown on the other side and the center is white, flaky, and cooked all the way through.
- Transfer the fish to a clean plate and cover it with foil to keep warm.
- To make the sauce, add the wine to the pan and turn the heat to high.
- Cook the wine for several minutes, until reduced by half, while scraping the brown bits off the bottom of the pan and incorporating them into the sauce.
- Pour in the lemon juice and stir to combine.
- The sauce will remain somewhat thin.
- Drizzle the sauce over the fish and garnish with fresh parsley or capers, if desired.
- Serve warm.
