Landed fresh on the Shetland quayside, our Shetland Plaice Fillets are a true testament to the quality of North Atlantic waters. At 8-10oz, these are generous, meaty fillets that offer a significantly more substantial bite than your average supermarket flatfish.
Prized for their fine, moist texture and a delicate, slightly sweet flavour, these fillets are a fantastic, sustainable alternative to Lemon Sole. Because they are sourced from the cold, nutrient-rich waters around Shetland, the flesh is exceptionally bright and firm, holding its shape beautifully whether you are pan-frying, grilling, or baking.
Why You’ll Love It:
Chef’s Tip: Plaice loves a bit of texture. Lightly dust the fillets in seasoned flour and pan-fry in a knob of butter for 2-3 minutes on each side until the edges are golden and crisp. Serve simply with a squeeze of lemon and a shower of fresh parsley to let the natural sweetness shine through.
