Basil-Parmesan Marinated Flounder

Recipe

  • 4 medium flounder fillets, (or other white fish)
  • ⅓ cup chopped fresh basil
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
  • 8 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • ¼ teaspoon pressed garlic
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

Heat the oven to 400° F.

In a small nonreactive bowl, combine basil, oil, vinegar, 6 tablespoons Parmesan, garlic, pepper and salt. Place fillets in a baking dish and pour marinade over them. Marinate in the refrigerator for 20 minutes, turning once.

Spoon excess marinade from dish. Sprinkle 2 tablespoon Parmesan over fillets. Bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 12 to 15 minutes. Cut into halves.
