Lemon Mustard Broiled Flounder Recipe - Cooking Index
Flounder is a lean, thin fish that cooks very quickly. So be sure to cook it 4 to 5 inches from the heat source and watch it carefully! Clover sprouts are available in the produce department of better supermarkets.

Spread about 1 1/2 teaspoons of the butter mixture atop each fish fillet. Broil for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the fish is lightly browned on top and just cooked through. Do not overcook.
