DOVER SOLE PICCATTA

DOVER SOLE PICCATTA
DINNER AT HOME

I cannot believe the price of fresh fish at Whole Foods Market in Hawaii.  Prices on this day ranged from $12.99 to $30 per pound.  With Mahi Mahi at $18 per pound I looked for an alternative and found Dover Sole for just under $10 per pound.  I don't have much experience with Dover Sole so I used a pretty basic recipe to make Dover Sole Piccatta.  The dish came out pretty good but my Daughter said it was too "lemony".  I agreed.  Should have tasted the sauce before squeezing the second half of the lemon in the sauce.  Dover Sole is a very light fish with mild flavor.  The sauce kicked up the flavor and was very easy to make.

FLOUR SEASONED WITH SALT AND FRESHLY CRACKED PEPPER
LIGHTLY DUSTED THE DOVER SOLE IN FLOUR
YOU CAN FRY THE FISH IN OLIVE OIL OR BUTTER.   I WENT FOR THE BUTTER.
