Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces sole fillets
- 16 pieces medium shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup sliced almonds
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Pat the sole fillets and shrimp dry with paper towels. Season both sides of the sole and shrimp with salt and pepper.
Dredge the sole fillets lightly in flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Add the sole fillets to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Transfer the fillets to a plate and keep warm.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of butter and the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the shrimp and sauté for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until pink and fully cooked. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and sliced almonds. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the almonds are golden and fragrant.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the lemon juice and chopped parsley. Cook for an additional 30 seconds, allowing the flavors to meld.
Return the cooked sole and shrimp to the skillet, spooning the almondine sauce over the top. Let everything warm through for 1-2 minutes.
Serve the Sole Almondine with Shrimp immediately, garnished with additional parsley if desired. Pair with steamed vegetables or rice for a complete meal.
