Dilly Sole

Lennie's Note:

My DH developed an allergy to white fish many years ago, but this was a dish we both loved; I served it often in the early 80s. It doubles easily if you want to feed more people.

My husband & I loved this! The dill really compliments to sole. I didn’t have a fresh lemon so I used a tsp of bottled lemon juice. I also used a handful of store bought bread crumbs. I put all the ingredients in small bowl and stuck it in the microwave for about 15 seconds to soften the butter. It mixed up really well this way. Thanks so much for sharing – we will definitely have this again!

This is a keeper! We used Dover sole. The kids and the husband all liked this very much!

Delicious!! My 18 month old slurpped it right up. It did take 15 minutes to cook completely tough, most likely due to my fikkets being thicker.
