JUMBO Whole Scottish Lemon Sole

The Chef’s Favorite

Direct from the cold, clear waters of the North Sea, our Scottish Jumbo Lemon Sole is a standout choice for those who appreciate the finer things in seafood. At a generous 20-24 oz, these are true "jumbo" specimens—far larger than the standard fillets you’ll find elsewhere.

Despite the name, Lemon Sole doesn't taste of citrus; rather, it is prized for its sweet, delicate flavor and incredibly fine, pearly-white flakes. Cooking the fish whole on the bone is the secret to maintaining its succulent moisture and deep, buttery richness.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Impressive Size: These 20-24 oz whole fish make a stunning centerpiece for a dinner for two
• Scottish Provenance: Sourced from sustainable Scottish landings, ensuring peak freshness and firm texture.
• Effortless Elegance: The meat slides effortlessly off the bone once cooked, making it a favorite for "faff-free" gourmet dining.

Chef’s Tip: The classic Lemon Sole Meunière is unbeatable. Dust the whole fish lightly in seasoned flour and pan-fry in plenty of foaming butter. Baste the top of the fish with the hot butter as it cooks (about 4–5 minutes per side). Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a handful of capers to cut through the richness.
