• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
• 1/4 cup chopped mint, plus 24 mint leaves
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• Four 6- to 8-ounce flounder fillets
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons plain whole-milk yogurt, drained
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more for pan frying

• All-purpose flour, for dredging

1. Preheat the oven to 300.
2. In a bowl, combine the garlic, serrano chile, cilantro and chopped mint.
3. Season generously with salt and pepper.
4. Cut a shallow 3-by-1 1/2-inch pocket in the wide side of each flounder fillet.
5. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the herb mixture into each pocket.
6. In a small saucepan, heat the olive oil.
7. Add the cream, yogurt and the remaining herb mixture and simmer over moderate heat until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
8. Remove from the heat.
9. In a large skillet, heat the 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
