An elegant mix of seasonings – lime, capers, cumin, garlic and lime lend a delicious mediterranean flavor to this wonderful sole recipe.

This recipe is courtesy of a fellow blogger- The Mediterranean Dish.

I am always looking for a good fish dish, and this one exceeded my expectations. I was immediately drawn to the combination of lime, capers and dill; three of my favorite ingredients.

If you cannot find the green onions in your grocery store, you can simply dice half a white or red onion instead. It will still be scrumptious!

It is a one-skillet meal ironically both light and filling. Most importantly, it whips up in no time and is easy to make, yet it feels like a luxurious dinner. 

Serve it with some white rice or grain to soak up the buttery lime sauce.

It is simply – Fabulous!

Ingredients for the Mediterranean Sole

1 lime or lemon cut into slices
Juice of 1 lime or lemon
1/2 cup extra-virgin live oil
1/2 cup unsalted butter,melted
2 shallots, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 tsp. or capers
1 tsp. kosher salt, or more to your taste
3/4 tsp. pepper
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. garlic powder
1.5 lb. Sole fillet (about 10-12 thin fillets)
4-6 green onions (scallions), top trimmed, hailed length-wise
3/4 cup roughly chopped fresh dill for garnish

Preheat oven to 375.

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil and melted butter with a pinch of salt.

Stir in the shallots, garlic and capers.

In a separate bowl, mix together the salt, pepper, cumin and garlic powder.

Spice the fish fillets each on both sides with the dry mixture.

Place the fillets on a lightly oiled baking pan or dish. Cover with the buttery lime mixture.

Arrange the lime slices on top.

Bake for 10-15 minutes. SET YOUR TIMER!

You do not want to overcook the fillets.

Remove the fish fillets from the oven and garnish with the chopped fresh dill.

It’s that simple!
