Parmesan Broiled Flounder
YUMMY!!!! This is one of my favorite meals. The recipe would work for any white, filleted fish. I've made it before with tilapia, but we prefer flounder. I buy the frozen flounder fillets at BJs.
I'll post the recipe as I found it, but I usually end up broiling the fish for quite a bit longer. I keep an eye on it and adjust the time as I need to. The first broiling period is when the fish cooks and the second is getting the topping browned and bubbly.
It tasted a little different this time and I suspect it's because I used generic mayo. I guess I'll have spring for some Kraft mayo next time!
Parmesan Broiled Flounder
Ingredients
1 lb flounder fillets or other white fish fillets
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 Tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/8 teaspoon salt
Directions
1. Place fillets in a single layer on a lightly greased or pan sprayed, shallow oven-to-table type broiler pan. Brush with lemon juice.
2. In a small bowl, combine remaining ingredients to make the cheese topping mixture. Set aside.
3. Broil fillets 4 to 6 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. (Time will depend on the thickness of the fillets and temperature of your oven/broiler.).
4. Remove fillets from oven. Spread with Parmesan topping.
5. Broil an additional 30 seconds or until cheese is lightly browned and bubbly (be careful to watch it, or it can burn).
6. Garnish with lemon twists and parsley, if desired.

but where is the parmesan? :)
I guess that would be helpful, wouldn't it???? I edited the recipe .... I also corrected the butter amount. In the past, I've used 2 different recipes, so I must have somehow weirdly combined them!!!!! Thanks for pointing it out!
