Red Lobster's Country-Fried Flounder

Red Lobster's Country-Fried Flounder







Serves 6







2 pounds flounder fillets, fresh

1 cup cornmeal

½ tsp. salt

½ tsp. paprika

½ tsp. ground black pepper





Skin fillets and cut them into serving size portions.

Combine cornmeal with seasonings. Roll fish in cornmeal mixture.



Pan Fry:



Place flounder in an iron skillet that has been preheated with about 1/8 inch of oil.

Brown on one side 2 - 3 minutes. Carefully turn and cook on the other side an additional 3 minutes, until fish flakes easily with a fork.

Serve with tartar sauce and coleslaw.







Marinate the fish in buttermilk for one hour prior to frying for a moist, authentic taste.
