Holiday food is often so rich and heavy that a light fish dinner with fresh greens is a welcome reprieve. Serve with sweet potatoes or wild rice.

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 sole fillets, (1-1/2 lb/750 g)
  • 1 pkg (10 oz/284 g) fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fines herbes
  • 1/2 lemon, quartered

Preparation

In shallow dish, combine flour and 1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper. One at a time, dip fillets into flour mixture, turning to coat; shake off excess.

In large nonstick skillet, heat 1 tbsp (15 mL) extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Fry fish, in 2 batches and using another 1 tbsp (15 mL) extra-virgin olive oil, until crispy and golden, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plate; keep warm.

Add spinach, fines herbes and 2 tbsp (25 mL) water to pan. Reduce heat to medium; cover and steam, stirring once, until spinach is tender, about 3 minutes. Serve with fish and lemon wedges.

Additional information :

Substitution: If you can't find any fines herbes at the store, you can make your own combination by using equal parts of chopped dried chives, parsley and tarragon.
