The best fluke you ever had

scurtis · 02-05-2008, 03:29 PM

For all of you that enjoy fluke as much as me.... this is the best way that I have found to cook it up:

2lbs Fluke Filets
2 fresh garden tomatoes diced (not too small)
2 tblspns Olive oil
3-4 cloves garlic finely minced (add more to your liking)
2 leaves fresh basil (finely chopped)

Mix veggies and olive oil in bowl let sit 2 hours in fridge
Salt and pepper fish filets to your liking
Place fish in oil veggie mix. Let sit for 20 minutes

Place fish and oil / veggie mix in tin foil bags (I do about 1lb per bag)
add just enough white wine to cover bottom 1/4 of filets (about one cup)
Seal up foil bag
Place on grill for 15 minutes

Top with lemon juice if you like. My wife does not but I think it adds to it all.

Good luck and enjoy just dont over cook the fish.

A fluke if you will was the reason I started fishing, I swear it was 8 inches long and illegal to keep probably back in 1979 but my grandfather filleted it when I was 8 years old and cooked it for me. Thats what got me hooked just sitting on our dock at the marina and catching a million little fluke, snappers and crabs
