Broiled Flounder (So Easy!)

mailbelle's Note:

This is one of the easiest ways to prepare fish. We ate lots of flounder growning up. I say that tongue-in-cheek. We actually did eat lots of fish, but for some reason when she was really little my baby sister declared the only fish she liked was flounder. So whenever we had fish, no matter what kind it was, if somewhat asked what kind of fish it was we always answered, "Flounder (wink,wink)."

This is the first time I've had flounder & probably the last. The taste was good, but I like my fish much firmer. Might try it again with ocean perch. THANKS!

We loved this. I followed the recipe other then I used 7 flounder fillets and doubled the butter and didn't measure the old bay. I didn't use the lemon as we aren't fond of lemon on our fish. Mine did take about 20 minutes to cook but I do think I had it further away then five inches. Quick and easy to make.
