Sole with Lemon Cream
5.0 (4444 reviews)
This pan-seared sole recipe highlights delicately flavored fish with a bright cream sauce spiked with refreshing lemon. We recommend petrale sole for this recipe if you can get it, but it will work with many types of sole, flounder, or other flatfish.

- 2 pounds sole fillets, cut to make 4 pieces

- 1/4 cup flour
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- Grated zest of 1/2 lemon

Instructions
- 1In a large nonstick frying pan, melt the butter over moderate heat. Sprinkle the sole with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and the pepper. Dust the sole with the flour and shake off any excess.
