Great Frying Flounders!
 

I've never done this before.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
I want it to come out very crunchy-- but not burned.

The best thing to do if you don't want it burned is to take it out before it gets burned. If you fail to do this it will get burned :smack

Isn't it like Halibut?

I prefer it grilled or broiled but you can bake it. If you bake it then it won't be crunchy...

Never had pan fried though

ANY fish tastes better fried in beer!

Ingredients

4 skinless flounder-fillets
Salt and pepper, to taste
Flour, for dredging fish
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons butter, divided
1 lemon, juiced

Directions

Wash fillets in cold water and pat dry. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dredge fillets in flour. Place oil and 2 tablespoons butter in flat, heavy-bottomed skillet and heat on medium-high until butter melts. Keeping heat at medium-high, cook fish on 1 side about 3 minutes (more or less, depending on size of fillets), until deep brown and crispy. Turn fish and cook on second side, about 3 minutes. Turn fish only once.

Remove fish to serving platter. Turn off heat. Into hot skillet, whisk in remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Add lemon juice. Pour in capers, liquid and all. Whisk. Pour thin sauce over fish fillets. serve at once.

you mean a beer batter?

Anyone have a recipe? I notice Krusteaz has a batter in the baking section at Vons, anyone try it?

We have Seafood restaurants here, like fish and chips places but better, that will batter whatever kind of fish you want and fry it. One though uses a dry mix though and I don't care for it

For a crispy dry coating add corn meal. When I was a kid I used to make it with flour, corn meal, garlic salt and pepper. Works ok for chicken too but use less corn meal
