How to Make Baked Flounder Fillets In Lemon Soy Vinaigrette
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Arrange flounder fillets in a single layer in a glass baking dish just large enough to hold them.
- In a small bowl, mince 2 cloves of garlic. Add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
- Whisk in 2 tablespoons of olive oil until the vinaigrette is emulsified. Pour the vinaigrette evenly over the fish fillets.
- Bake in the middle of the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The fish should be opaque and no longer translucent.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
