Ingredients

1 lb Dover sole fillets
1 egg
1/3 cup flour
Sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
1 bunch fresh parsley finely chopped
3 tablespoons capers
1 lemon cut into wedges

Instructions

Halve or slice the sole fillets into 3 long strips and season with salt and pepper.
Beat egg in a shallow dish. Spread flour in a second shallow dish. Gently dip each piece of sole into the beaten egg, then the flour, making sure they are completely coated. Dust off any excess flour and put pieces to one side. Keep going until all the sole pieces have been coated.
Heat a large frying pan on a medium heat and add the olive oil. Fry the sole pieces for couple of minutes, until golden brown. Turn the sole pieces over and add the butter, parsley and capers. Cook for another couple of minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer fish to a plate and serve with some wedges of lemon to squeeze over and a spoonful of the sauce.
Enjoy!
