🧂 Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Pacific Dover sole fillet

  (or other small flatfish)
• 2 stalks celery

  sliced thinly, diagonally
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1 tbsp lemon zest

  (approximately one lemon)
• 1 tbsp ginger

  minced
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• black rice

  for 4 people, see note below.

Instructions

• 1 Cut each fillet into 4-5 portions and set aside.
• 2 Combine the lemon zest, ginger, wine, and sugar in a bowl. Stir to combine and
  set aside.
• 3 Turn on the broiler on the oven and allow it to preheat.
• 4 Heat a cast iron or other oven-proof skillet on the stove top over high heat for
  30 seconds. Add the butter and the smoked paprika and stir together as the
  butter melts.
• 5 Once the butter is just beginning to bubble up, add the celery and stir
  together. Cook for about 30 seconds, then add the wine mixture and cook for an
  additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• 6 Add the fish to the frying pan and gently stir to get some of the sauce onto to
  the fillets. Immediately transfer the frying pan to the oven (use whatever rack
  allows you to get the frying pan close to the broiler).
• 7 Broil for 4-5 minutes, or until the sauce, celery, and fish as starting to brown
  at the edges. Remove from heat and serve with black rice (see note below) or the
  side of your choice.
