Grilled Flounder with Fresh Herbs & Citrus
As we welcome fall, I’m reminiscing about summer. I made this fish dish after a beach day with my cousins. It’s fresh, flavorful and quick. This pairs perfectly with grilled corn and tomatoes which are in their final peak of the season now too.

Yield: 4 servings
- 4 flounder filets
- 1 orange, sliced
- 1 lemon, sliced
- 4 sprigs fresh oregano
- 4 sprigs fresh dill
- 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
- 4 sprigs fresh fennel fronds
- sea salt
- freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
Step 1
Place fish on bed of aluminum foil large enough to wrap closed like a tent around the fish. Season with a few pinches of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper on each filet.
Step 2
Drizzle with about 1-2 teaspoons of olive oil on each filet.
Step 3
Lay citrus on top of fish alternating lemon and orange. Arrange one sprig of each herb on top of each filet.
Step 4
Make a tent with foil and seal closed. Place on medium-high grill and cook for 3-4 minutes.
Serve hot in foil.
Notes
Caution: Flounder is very delicate and will turn mushy if overcooked.
Think Out of the Ice Box: Try this with fresh thyme and parsley or any other fresh herbs that you have available.
