Baked Flounder with Garlic and Lemon

This recipe comes from Paula Deen's sons cookbook called "Y'all Come Eat!" and it was super easy to make!

We were lucky enough to have this flounder given to us by Nick's dad who always gives us fish when he goes fishing! Yummmo!

Baked Flounder with Garlic and Lemon
serves 4

Ingredients You Will Need:

4  6-8 ounce flounder fillets (the original recipe calls for tilapia but any white fish will do)
1 tsp garlic salt
fresh ground black pepper
1/2 stick unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
finely grated zest and juice of 1 lemon (or lime)

Preheat oven to 375. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Set aside.

Rinse fish and pat dry; place on the prepared baking sheet. Season each fillet with 1/4 tsp garlic salt and pepper to taste. Divide the butter pieces, lemon zest, and juice evenly among the tops of the fillets. Bake for 8-12 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.

Serve with broccoli and brown rice or fingerling potatoes.
Enjoy!
