How to Make Portuguese Filet Of Sole

  1. Preheat your broiler to high.
  2. Place the sole fillet in a broiler-safe pan. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and dot with 1 tablespoon of butter.
  3. Broil for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. While the fish is broiling, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of dry sherry, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, and 1 large egg yolk in a small bowl until well combined.
  5. Once the fish is cooked, spoon the lemon-sherry sauce evenly over the top.
  6. Return the pan to the broiler for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce begins to bubble slightly.
  7. Serve immediately and garnish with extra parsley if desired.
