Sauteed Flounder with Orange-Shallot Sauce

  • Number of Servings: 4
Ingredients
1/3 cup all-purpose flour1/2 teaspoon salt, or to tasteFreshly ground pepper to taste1 pound flounder, sole or haddock fillets1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil1 large shallot, finely chopped (about 1/3 cup)1/2 cup dry white wine1 cup freshly squeezed orange juice2 heaping teaspoons Dijon mustard2 teaspoons butter2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Directions
1. Mix flour, salt and pepper in a shallow dish. Thoroughly dredge fish fillets in the mixture.
2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking (see Tip). Add the fish and cook until lightly browned and just opaque in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and cover loosely with foil.
3. Add shallot to the pan and cook over medium-high heat, stirring often, until softened and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Add wine and bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits. Cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add orange juice and mustard; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until the sauce thickens a bit, about 5 minutes. Add butter and parsley; stir until the butter has melted. Transfer fish to individual plates, top with sauce and serve.
