Now, when I told my Husband about the recipe I had in mind for the fish he was less than excited by it. That meant it was time to re-group and come up with something else. So, I did a little searching on the internet (so much easier than looking through my cookbooks). I didn't find exactly what I was looking for but I did manage to get some ideas that allowed me to make a really good dish.
What I decided to do was a quick pan-fry of the fish after a light seasoning with salt, pepper and thyme leaves. Once the fish was cooked, and it does cook very quickly so it's important to keep a very close eye on it, I made a simple but delicious sauce. I love the combination of lemon and white wine, so those ingredients were obvious to me. Then, I decided to toss in some capers since we do love their added flavor. As it cooked I did a quick taste and decided a small amount of chicken broth was needed to bring the sharpness of the sauce down to what I was hoping to achieve.
The overall dish was loved by everyone, including BOTH of my boys! Success feels great! Fish does not always go over well with them if it doesn't come in the form of a breaded fish stick. This dish is very quick and easy to make and would work well even on a busy weeknight. You can find the recipe HERE.

It looks delicious and very light, indeed. The first time I heard of dove sole was in an episode of "Hell's Kitchen".
That's what I love about watching those reality cooking shows... I always get the chance to learn about a new ingredient or a new way to cook things!
That sounds simple and tasty.
This looks delicious! Nice and light. I can't ever find sole here, so I'd have to sub flounder or tilapia. Oh well, such is life. ;)
Anything described as a 'nice lite dinner' is something I need to pay attention to! Looks great :)
