Sole lemon

Lemon sole is a different fish from Dover sole: softer, more delicate flesh, less firm, and milder in flavour. It is typically pan-fried or grilled simply, often with a lemon butter or parsley butter. The flesh is more fragile than Dover sole and the flavour is gentler; a wine that suits Dover sole can occasionally overpower lemon sole. The butter adds fat and the lemon provides the acid backbone. Oak is eliminated.
