Ingredients
2 x Dover soles weighing about 450 g /1lb
25 g / 1 oz butter, melted
100 ml / 3 fl oz good extra virgin olive oil
Splash of white wine vinegar
Zest of 2 lemons
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp rinsed salted capers, roughly chopped
Small handful of finely chopped basil
Sea salt
Black pepper
25 g / 1 oz butter, melted
100 ml / 3 fl oz good extra virgin olive oil
Splash of white wine vinegar
Zest of 2 lemons
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp rinsed salted capers, roughly chopped
Small handful of finely chopped basil
Sea salt
Black pepper
Method
Pre heat the grill to maximum.
Brush the white side of the fish with a little melted butter then lay onto your grill pan.
Brush the top of the fish with melted butter and season with salt and pepper.
Place under the grill and grill for about 10-12 minutes brushing every so often with a little more melted butter so the Dover sole takes on a wonderful crisp golden coating.
Make the dressing by mixing the olive oil and vinegar, taste to make sure you have a good acidity between the two, the dressing should be quite piquant. Then add the lemon zest, juice, capers and basil.
Place a fish on each plate and spoon a little of the dressing over making sure there is plenty of caper, lemon zest and herbs going onto each fish.
A fennel salad made by tossing finely sliced fennel with lemon juice sea salt and parsley would make a lovely accompaniment.
