Baked Flounder And Eggs Recipes

EASY, EXCELLENT BAKED FLOUNDER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and coat with cooking spray.
• Rinse flounder fillets, pat dry, and place on the baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk butter and wine together in a bowl; pour over flounder. Sprinkle each fillet with bread crumbs and then paprika.
• Bake in the preheated oven until flounder flakes easily with a fork, 25 to 30 minutes.

BAKED FLOUNDER AND EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pour butter in a 13-by-9-inch metal baking pan. Place fish in pan and turn to coat with butter. Season with about half the salt and paprika, and plenty of black pepper.
• Bake for 2 to 4 minutes, then add eggs (if you like runny eggs, add them after 3 or 4 minutes; for medium-firm but still slightly runny eggs, add them after 2 minutes, and for very firm eggs, you can add them along with the fish at the beginning). Crack eggs into pan in the corners; eggs should land next to, not on top of fish. Season eggs with remaining salt, paprika and more pepper. Continue baking until fish is just opaque and eggs are lightly set, 7 to 8 minutes more.
• Combine scallions, parsley and capers, if using. Transfer fish and eggs to serving plates; garnish with caper mixture.

FLAVORFUL FLOUNDER FOR THE OVEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
• Season both sides of flounder fillets with salt. Place into the prepared baking dish. Brush 1 tablespoon lemon juice over fillets.
• Mix remaining lemon juice, Parmesan cheese, melted butter, mayonnaise, and green onions in a bowl; spoon over the fillets.
• Bake flounder in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Switch oven to broil; broil fillets until the tops are just browned, 3 to 5 minutes.

BAKED FLOUNDER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lay the flounder fillets in a buttered 13 × 9 × 2-inch baking dish. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Pour the sherry over the fish, then pour on half of the butter. Cover the fish with breadcrumbs and pour the remaining butter over the crumbs. Bake for 15 minutes.
• *Cooked lobster meat or raw scallops may be substituted for flounder.

BAKED FLOUNDER WITH MAYONNAISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Season fish with salt and pepper on both sides.
• Lightly coat a baking sheet with oil.
• Place fish on the sheet and bake 15-20 minutes, depending upon thickness, testing with a fork to see if done. As soon as the fish becomes slightly opaque, they are done.
• In the meantime, mix the sauce ingredients and test for seasoning. Top the fillets with the sauce once the fish has cooled a minute after coming out of the oven.

EGG BATTER PAN-FRIED FLOUNDER WITH GREEN GARLIC

Steps:

• Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper. Make the egg batter by whisking together the eggs and milk in a shallow bowl, along with a pinch of salt.
• Put the flour on a plate. Coat each fillet lightly on both sides, then submerge the fish in the egg batter. (This can be done up to 30 minutes ahead.)
• Pour about 1/4 inch oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil looks wavy, lift the fish from the egg batter one piece at a time, allowing excess batter to drip off. (Discard remaining batter.) Carefully lay each fillet in the pan and let fry gently until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Remove and blot briefly on paper towels, then transfer to a warmed serving platter.
• Pour off any remaining oil and return the pan to the heat. Melt the butter in the pan and add the green garlic, and a little salt and pepper. Let cook without browning for about 1 minute, then add the lemon juice.
• Spoon the green garlic butter over the fish. Sprinkle with parsley, garnish with lemon wedges and serve immediately.
