    Recipe Introduction


    In the realm of classic French cuisine, any preparation bearing the designation grenobloiseliterally, "of Grenoble", a city in southeastern Franceis served with a sauce of browned butter, capers, parsley, and pieces of lemon.



    List of Ingredients




    2 whole skinless sole filets (about 4 oz. each),
    halved lengthwise down center line
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    to taste
    1⁄4 cup milk
    1 lemon, peeled
    1⁄2 cup flour
    2 tbsp. clarified butter
    2 tbsp. unsalted butter (like L'Anctre Bio Organic)
    2 tsp. capers, drained
    2 tsp. coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley


    Recipe



    1. Season sole filets with salt and pepper; put them into a shallow dish. Cover with milk; set aside.


    2. Using a knife, cut white pith away from lemon; remove segments by slicing between membranes. Cut half the segments into 1⁄2" pieces. (Reserve the other half for another use.) Put flour on a plate; season with salt and pepper; set aside.


    3. Heat clarified butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove filets from milk; fold the thin, tapered ends under to create an even thickness. Dredge both sides in flour, shake off excess, and add to skillet. Cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to plates; cover with foil to keep warm.


    4. Add whole butter to skillet; cook, stirring, until it turns a deep brown and smells nutty, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in lemon pieces, capers, and parsley; swirl skillet to combine. Spoon sauce over sole. Serve immediately.
