How to Make Sweet And Sour Panfried Sole
- **Make the Sauce:**
- In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup water, 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon ketchup, 1 teaspoon sesame oil, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
- Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens (about 1 minute).
- Remove from heat and keep warm.
- **Prep the Fish:**
- Lightly beat 2 large eggs in a shallow dish.
- Place all-purpose flour on one plate and panko bread crumbs on another.
- Season the flour with a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Season sole fillets (about 4, 4-6oz each) with salt on both sides.
- Dredge each fillet in flour, then dip in the egg, and finally coat thoroughly in panko bread crumbs. Gently press the panko to adhere.
- **Pan-fry the Sole:**
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add the fish fillets and pan-fry for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. You may need to cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Add more oil as needed to prevent sticking.
- Remove the fish from the pan and drain briefly on paper towels.
- **Serve:**
- Serve the pan-fried sole fillets immediately, drizzled generously with the sweet and sour sauce. Garnish with sesame seeds (optional). Serve with rice and steamed vegetables.
