Gluten Free Sole Meunière is a delicious and elegant dish that you can have ready in just fifteen minutes.
My husband is not a big fish eater, but he does have a few favorite fish dishes and gluten free sole meunière is one of them. I’m glad because fish is so good for you and I’m always looking to add more seafood dishes.
The French word “meunière” means “miller’s wife” and refers to the way the fish is dredged in flour before cooking. Hence those with a gluten sensitivity cannot order this classic dish when dining out.
By swapping the flour for gluten free all purpose flour, you can prepare this simple rustic dish at home.
Here’s the recipe for this delicious and elegant dish that you can have ready in just fifteen minutes: Gluten Free Sole Meunière.
What is Meunière sauce made of?
The sauce is simply made with brown butter, lemon, and parsley.
So, here are all the ingredients you’ll need
• Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free All Purpose flour
• salt
• pepper
• sole fillets
• butter
• fresh lemons
• and parsley
How to make it
*Free printable recipe card is available at the end of the post.
Rinse and pat the sole fillets dry with paper towels and sprinkle one side with salt.
Combine your flour with salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl.
Then dredge the sole fillets in the seasoned flour.
Now heat your butter in a large skillet over a medium heat until it starts to brown.
Add fillets, two at a time and cook until golden on the bottom. Carefully turn your fish over and cook until opaque in center and golden on bottom.
While the second side cooks, add the juice of your lemon to the pan.
Then carefully transfer your fish fillets to a plate and pour your lemon butter sauce from the skillet over the fish.
Sprinkle with parsley, salt, and pepper. And keep the fillets warm while you repeat with your floured fillets.
For extra sauce, add 1/4 cup of lemon juice to the skillet, stir, scraping up the little bits. Serve sauce on the side.
What goes with this meal?
Serve with your favorite vegetables for a quick easy meal.
And that’s it! Delicious Sole Meunière made gluten free so that everyone at your table can enjoy.

The fish looks absolutely YUMMY! My mouth is watering just from seeing the pictures. I haven’t paid much attention to gluten in my own diet and there are so many mixed opinions on the subject. You are obviously all for gluten-free, what is your opinion on the subject?
