SOLE MEUNIèRE
The dish that made Julia Child fall in love with French cuisine, sole meunière highlights the simple flavors of fresh fish, butter, lemon and parsley. Fish is the center of the dish, so using a quality fillet is important: A true English Dover sole is preferred. Clarified butter, which takes a few extra minutes to prepare, can take on heat without browning, making it ideal for pan-frying fish. A classic sole meunière is made with a bone-in fillet, but boneless sole is faster and easier. You'll find a recipe for clarified butter here. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200 degrees and place a large oven-safe plate or baking sheet inside.
- Place flour on a large, shallow plate. Season both sides of fish fillets with salt and pepper to taste. Dredge fish in flour, shaking off excess.
- In a 12-inch nonstick or enamel-lined skillet over medium-high heat, heat 2 tablespoons clarified butter until bubbling. Place half of the fish fillets in the pan and cook until just done, 2 to 3 minutes per side, then transfer to the plate or baking sheet in the oven to keep warm. Add 2 more tablespoons clarified butter to skillet and heat until bubbling, then cook remaining fillets. Wipe out the skillet.
- Arrange the fish on a warm serving platter. Top with parsley. In reserved skillet, heat remaining 4 tablespoons unsalted butter until bubbling and golden, 1 to 2 minutes, then pour evenly over fillets. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges on the side.

Steps:
- Season the fish with salt and pepper. Put the flour in a wide shallow dish, then coat the fillets one at a time in the flour, shaking off the excess.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the vegetable oil; once very hot and shimmering, add the fillets. (You may need to do this in 2 batches.) Cook until golden brown and cooked about two-thirds of the way, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully flip the fish and cook until just cooked through, about 30 more seconds. Remove the fillets to a serving platter.
- Pour off any remaining oil and wipe out the skillet. Return it to medium-high heat, then add the butter and cook until melted, any foaming subsides and the butter is a deep golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and swirl in the lemon juice and a pinch of salt (it may splatter a bit). Once incorporated, add the parsley and immediately spoon the sauce over the fish. Serve with lemon wedges.
SOLE MEUNIERE
This is lovely with it's buttery-lemony sauce. Don't make this dish for a crowd, because you should eat it straight away and two soles are about all that will fit into the average non-stick frying pan. From the book "Bistro, French country recipes for home cooks".

Steps:
- Put some flour on a large place, add the fish, cover with the flour on both sides and shake off the excess.
- Reserve 2 TBs of the butter. Heat the oil and remaining butter over medium high heat in a nonstick frying pan large enough to hold both fish side by side. When it sizzles, add the sole and cook for about 3 minutes. Turn them over and cook on the other side for 3 minutes. Sprinkle the first side with salt while the second side is cooking.
- When the fish is cooked through, transfer to warmed dinner plates and season the second side.
- Return the frying pan to the heat, add the remaining 2 TBS butter and melt over high heat. When it begins to sizzle, lower the heat and add the lemon juice. Cook, scraping the pan for about 10 seconds; do not let the butter burn. Pour this sauce over the fish and sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately with sliced lemon.

SOLE MEUNIERE
By Randall Price. Fillets of turbot or halibut are good alternatives to sole. Mr. Price doesn't recommend flounder or cod fillets; they're too delicate.

Steps:
- How to clarify butter: Melt the butter slowly. Let it sit for a bit to separate. Skim off the foam that rises to the top, and gently pour the butter off of the milk solids, which have settled to the bottom. A stick (8 tablespoons) of butter will produce about 6 tablespoons of clarified butter.
- Arrange the fillets in a shallow dish and pour the milk over them. Let soak for at least 5 minute and up to 20 minute Set up your work area so that you can move quickly: position your serving plates or platter, the milk soaking pan, a pile of paper towels, and the seasoned flour on a plate. Have the melted butter in a small, heavy-based saucepan, and the lemon juice and parsley ready for action.
- In one or two large frying pans, heat the clarified butter over medium-high heat until very hot but not quite smoking. Lift a fillet from the milk, blot it on the paper towels, dip it into the flour, and shake off the excess. Carefully lay the fish in the hot fat. Repeat with the other fillets, but don't overcrowd the pan or you'll have trouble flipping. Adjust the temperature to keep the fat sizzling briskly but not burning. Cook the fish until golden on one side, about 2 minute With a slotted spatula, a large spoon, and great care, gently flip the fish.
- When the second side of the fish is golden brown and the flesh is tender when poked with a sharp knife in the thickest part, use the slotted spatula to remove the sole, set it on paper towels to drain briefly, and arrange on the warm platter or plates.
- When all the fillets are cooked, heat the melted whole butter carefully over medium-high heat, swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter is fragrant and the milk solids turn nutty brown; remove the pan from the heat so the butter doesn't keep cooking, but keep it hot.
- Working fast, pour 1 Tbs. of the lemon juice evenly over each fish and sprinkle on the parsley. Pour about 1-1/2 Tbs. of the hot browned butter on each fish -- if all has gone well, you'll see and hear a delicious sizzle. (If there's no sizzle, it will still taste great.) Serve immediately.
