What is "meunière"?

Meunière is a classic French cooking technique and dish that involves lightly coating fish fillets with flour and then sautéing them in butter. The dish is typically seasoned with salt, pepper, and lemon juice, and sometimes garnished with parsley.

Meunière is often served with a side of vegetables or potatoes and it is commonly made with delicate white fish such as sole, trout, or flounder.
