Seared Flounder with Sesame Spinach

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
• 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon finely grated peeled ginger
• 1 bunch flat-leaf spinach, trimmed, coarsely chopped
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
• Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
• 4 6-oz. flounder fillets

Steps

1. Heat 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add spinach and sesame oil and toss to coat. Cook, tossing occasionally, until spinach is wilted, about 5 minutes. Add vinegar, soy sauce, and sesame seeds; season with salt and pepper and gently toss to combine. Set aside.
2. Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil in another large skillet over medium-high heat. Season fish with salt and pepper and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Serve flounder with spinach.
