Flounder Francaise

INGREDIENTS
2 eggs, beaten
1 TBSP. olive oil
1 TBSP. butter
1/2 cup flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. garlic powder
1/8 tsp. paprika
1/8 tsp. black pepper
4 large flounder fillets
Sauce:
4 TBSP. butter
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 tsp. parsley
lemon slices, for garnish

DIRECTIONS
In a large skillet, heat the oil and 1 TBSP. butter over medium heat.
Place the flour and all the seasonings in a plastic bag and shake to blend.
Place the beaten eggs in a shallow dish.
When the skillet is hot, put the flounder fillets in the bag one at a time and then dip in the egg.
Coat them completely with the egg and place in skillet.
The egg should sizzle immediately. If it doesn’t, the oil is not hot enough.
Save 1 TBSP. of the flour mixture for the sauce.
Fry over medium heat until brown on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Add extra butter if needed.
Remove from skillet, keep warm.
Discard any oil left in the skillet and add the butter and 1 TBSP. of the seasoned flour reserved from the flounder.
Whisk until smooth.
Add the rest of the sauce ingredients, stirring constantly until well blended.
Bring to a boil; cook 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
If the sauce thickens too much, add more water, just 1 tsp. at a time until you achieve the desired consistency.
To serve, place flounder over a bed of buttered rice and pour a little sauce over each fillet.
Garnish with lemon slices.
Serves 4
