Ingredients
- * 1 pink grapefruit
- * 2 tablespoons flour
- * 4 flounder or sole fillets, about 6 ounces
- * 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- * 2 shallots, finely minced
- * 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- * 1 tablespoon cilantro leaf, finely minced
Directions
-
- Peel grapefruit, removing all white pith. Hold grapefruit over a bowl and with a small, sharp knife, separate grapefruit into segments, cutting them away from the membrane that separates them. Reserve two tablespoons of the juice in the bowl. Set the segments and juice aside.
-
- Season the flour with salt and pepper (to taste) and spread it on a plate.
-
- Dip fish fillets into the four, dusting off any excess.
-
- Heat two tablespoons butter in a large non-stick skillet. Saute flounder about three minutes a side, until cooked through and lightly browned. If you cannot fit all the flounder into the pan at one time, do it in two shifts or use two pans.
-
- Remove flounder from pan and put on a warm plate. Add remaining butter and the shallots to pan and saute a few minutes.
-
- Add the grapefruit segments, juice and vinegar and bring to a simmer.
-
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
- Spoon the sauce over the fish, sprinkle with cilantro and serve
