Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lb. fresh or thawed sole or flounder filet (with or without skin)

Preparation:
Preheat oven to 350°.
Butter a casserole dish large enough for the fillet or fillets. Rinse and pat the fish dry. Sprinkle with vinegar and brush the melted butter over the top. Place the fillets in the buttered dish.
Bake fillets for 5 minutes.
