Sole Meunière offers a delicate balance of buttery richness, subtle sweetness from the sole, and a slight tang from lemon. The browned butter contributes nutty and toasted notes, enhancing the overall flavor profile.
The dominant flavor is the rich, nutty, and browned butter. The sole itself is mild and sweet, its delicate flavor enhanced by the butter.

Butter Browning
Monitor the butter closely while browning. It should turn a nutty brown color and emit a fragrant aroma, but be careful not to burn it, as this will impart a bitter taste. Remove from heat immediately when the desired color is achieved.
Fish Cooking
Do not overcrowd the pan. Overcrowding will lower the temperature of the pan, causing the fish to steam rather than sear, resulting in a less desirable texture and flavor.
Sole Selection
Choose fresh, firm sole fillets with a mild, clean scent. Avoid fish that smells overly fishy or has a slimy texture. Dover sole is often considered the best choice, but other types of sole can also be used.
