Delicately flavored sole pairs exceptionally
well with tart lemons and the mild oniony flavor of chives. This
citrus-herb duo also works well with other white-fleshed fish
like snapper, trout, tilapia and halibut.

2 medium yellow summer squash, cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 sprays olive oil cooking spray
1/2 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
1 1/4 pound sole, four 5 oz fillets
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth
2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 Tbsp honey mustard
2 tsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1 Tbsp chives, fresh, minced
4 cup sugar snap peas, steamed
- Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large
baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Place squash rounds on middle of baking
sheet; coat with cooking spray and season to taste with salt and
pepper.
- Season both sides of sole fillets with
salt and pepper; place sole on top of squash. Bake until fish is
fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk
together broth, lemon juice, mustard, cornstarch and lemon zest. Set
pan over medium heat and simmer until sauce thickens, stirring
frequently with a wire whisk, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and
stir in chives.
- Transfer squash, sole and snap peas to
individual plates and spoon lemon sauce over top of fish. Yields
about 1 fillet, 1 cup of snap peas, 1/3 cup of squash and 2
tablespoons of sauce per serving.
