This dish also works well with John Dory too.

 

Ingredients

•  2 Fishbox brill fillets
•  ½ cup plain flour
•  Sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
•  80g butter
•  ¼ cup capers
•  Juice of 1 lemon
•  1 clove garlic, crushed
•  2 tbsp chopped flat-leaf parsley
•  Green salad or boiled potatoes, to serve

Method

1.  Spread the flour on a large plate and season well.
2.  Dust the brill in the flour, shaking off the excess.
3.  Heat 25g butter in a large frying pan or flat grill plate and cook the brill for 2-3 mins each side, carefully turning it over with a fish slice to prevent it breaking. Check it’s cooked all the way through.
4.  Transfer the brill to a serving plate and keep warm in a low oven.
5.  Add the remaining butter to the pan and cook over a medium heat until golden brown in colour with a nutty aroma.
6.  Add the capers, lemon juice, garlic, parsley and season then cook for 2 mins.
7.  To serve, pour the brown butter and capers over the brill and serve with green salad or boiled potatoes.
