Broiled Flounder
Broiled Flounder
Ingredients
Yield: 4 – 6 servings
- 8 skinless flounder fillets, 4 to 5 oz. each
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1/3 cup good-quality mayonnaise
- 1-1/2 Tablespoons loosely packed finely grated lemon zest (from 1 large lemon)
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 small clove garlic, minced
- 2 Tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Directions
- Position a rack 4 inches from the heat element and heat the broiler on high.
- Lightly season both sides of the fillets with salt and pepper.
- Set a fillet before you, skinned side up, and starting at the narrow end, roll up the fillet. Repeat with the remaining fillets.
- Spray a broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Arrange the flounder rolls, seam side down, in the pan.
- Broil until the tops are lightly browned, 7 to 8 min.
- Meanwhile, whisk the mayonnaise, lemon zest and juice, Worcestershire, and garlic in a small bowl. Season with pepper to taste.
- When the tops of the fillets are lightly browned, remove the fish from the broiler.
- Spread equal amounts of the mayonnaise mixture over the top of each fillet. Return to the broiler until the topping is golden brown and bubbling, 1-1/2 to 2 min.
- Transfer the fillets to four dinner plates and sprinkle with the parsley.
- Serve immediately.
