My variation on an already fantastic fish recipe. I just tweaked it to make it easier for myself. I'm all about ease when it comes to cooking these days.

Flavorful Flounder For the Oven

cooking spray

flounder fillets,

salt

lemon juice, divided

Parmesan cheese

butter, melted

mayonnaise

green onions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.


Season both sides of flounder fillets with salt. Place into the prepared baking dish. Brush 1 tablespoon lemon juice over fillets.


Mix remaining lemon juice, Parmesan cheese, melted butter, mayonnaise, and green onions in a bowl; spoon over the fillets.


Bake flounder in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Switch oven to broil; broil fillets until the tops are just browned, 3 to 5 minutes.


Great easy meal. The hubs and kids loved it.  I followed directions to a tee audit turned out great. Next  time I am going to line the pan with foil for easier clea up and I think Ill add some dill and capers. Yummy!

The flavor was fabulous I can't understand why my Flounder always comes out mushy though. I have tried this 2ce the second time I added 1/4 tsp. garlic powder and 1/4 tsp dill weed. even more flavorful! My husband is not a fish eater but he enjoys this!

Tweaked this yummy fish after reading comments.  I broiled it instead baking it.  I brushed melted butter and lemon juice on the flounder prior to broiling the flounder.  Broiled till half way of cooking time (ex 6 minutes total time).  SO at 3 minutes I put the Parmesan mixture on a returned to broiler!  Delightfully delicious and firm!

Love this recipe easy and so good. My husband even likes it and he hates mayonnaise.

A great recipe for kids who may not like strong tasting fish. I followed other reviewers advice and patted the fish dry (frozen and thawed IQF flounder) and then brushed with lemon juice. Then under the broiler for 3 minutes. I mixed the parm, mayo and some italian style bread crumbs together and added the mix to the broiled fish and returned to the oven for another 3-4 min under the broiler, watching to make sure it didn't burn. Delicious! Even my non-fish eater son ate it without complaint. Thanks for a recipe I can use on other fish filets!

This is a super easy recipe and tasty as well.  After reading the comments about being mushy I decided to broil the fish and not bake it. Flounder is so thin, it is easy to overcook. I prepared the topping as per recipe but used a few finely chopped leek pieces instead of green onions.  I ommitted the butter as I was using lower fat mayo and adding butter seemed counterproductive! I broiled until I could see it getting a bit flaky.  Midway through, I used a knife to respread the mayo mix so it would not burn.  Turned out perfect and not mushy! M.A.

Very yummy, easy recipe. My husband said it was the best fish he had ever had, including fine restaurants. As other reviews did, I broiled my fish. I broiled for 5 minutes on middle rack, removed and put on the mayo mixture, and returned to middle rack until brown and bubbly (another 4-5 min). The texture was perfect. I did add some herb de Provence and felt it added a wonderful flavor. 

Thank you Lola for sharing this great recipe. I will be making this one again!

I made this for dinner last night and it was a big hit with my entire family - including my very picky 10 year old step-son! I did change a few things based on reviews and personal preference. For instance I omitted the lemon juice as I am not a fan of lemon flavor on my food. Rather than green onion I just sprinkled some parsley flakes into the topping mixture. I also sprinkled a bit of garlic powder on the fillets and broiled for about 3-5 minutes then added the topping and broiled for an additional 3-5 minutes. Definite addition to the dinner menu rotation in our house!

4 stars for being easy and fairly quick on a busy weeknight. I only used 3 T butter but could easily nix it altogether next time and sub out another T of mayo. I used a LOT more lemon juice than called for since I love the citrusy zing it imparts on fish. To the mayo/cheese mixture I sprinkled in some onion & garlic powders paprika some dried parsley and dried chopped onion since I didn't have green. I also liberally sprinkled the same spice mixture over the fish and used sea salt to taste. I didn't want to bother with lining and/or cleaning a baking dish so I just sprayed Pam in a foil 9x13" pan. DH really liked it; so did I but it's not the healthiest dinner ever so it'll be reserved for a "once in a while" meal. Thanks!

The taste is good but mine came out mushy.
