Lemon Cajun Flounder

This recipe is so basic I hesitated to post it, but what the heck right? It is such a quick, easy and tasty way to prepare flounder fillets when I'm not in the mood for frying or stuffing them. The flavors go great with this fish. These little fillets pack a hot, spicy, lemony punch and pairs well with plain rice and steamed veggies. This recipe is pretty much fail-proof. I never measure the spices, just coat the fish well and it all seems to work out. I throw this meal together when I'm in a rush and need something that looks nice. Simple, yet delicious. Can't beat that.
