Wild Caught Petrale Sole, Two Sauces

Fresh Wild Pacific Northwest Petrale Sole
Honey Teriyaki and Tahini Drizzle
Cilantro and Pickled Ginger


Here I lightly flour and season the fish then sauté in half butter half olive oil over medium heat. The sole is plated then drizzled with Honey Teriyaki and Tahini sauces and topped with Cilantro and Pickled Ginger.





The Royal Foodie Joust is a monthly competition involving creativity and three ingredients hosted by The Left-Over Queen. The current month's ingredients are picked by last month's victor, Peter of Kalofagas, who chose ingredients that sang to me:
  • Seafood
  • Cilantro
  • Sesame

Wine Recommendation: M.Chapoutier Belleruche Côtes du Rhône Rosé

Do I expect to win the JOUST, just by drizzling two bottled sauces on a piece of fish and topping it with the third ingredient? No way. But I so loved the synergism of the elements of this dish, I do believe it is worthy of sharing.

Great job LL - as I try to incorporate more fish - sole is one of the ones that so far, I'm really okay with. This is intriguing. Great entry for the joust

Thanks for sharing, I love it!

kittie said...

Pan-fried fish is one of my weekday staples - so I'm well chuffed to have a new sauce combo to try with it next time!

Great entry!

Lori Lynn said...

Hi Oggi - my pleasure.

Hi Kitty - Welcome! Me too on the fish, and thank you.

Gloria said...

I have tasted so many, but not this one. Pls teach how to make this. Plssssss.

Anonymous said...

Yes, but what about recipes for the sauces? That's cheating... :(

Lori Lynn said...

Hi Anon - that was why I said I didn't expect to win. It was with 2 bottled sauces, you can buy anywhere, Teriyaki and Tahini, but the point of the post was it is a really good combination! Even with bottled sauce. And EASY. Do try, let me know what you think.
