  • 4 ea. (24 ounces) flounder or other flat fish fillets
  • Olive oil
  • ½ cup dry vermouth
  • 2 tablespoon (¼ stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • Salt
  • Freshly-ground black pepper

  5. Put pan under broiler and broil the fish as close to the heat as possible for about 2 minutes.
  6. Remove and quickly spread softened butter over the fillets.
  7. Return the pan to the broiler and cook for about 5 minutes more, until fish is just cooked through.
