    I cannot believe that this is a complete recipe. 3 cups of olive oil?? This would complete drown anything in a skillet ... I only used just under one cup of oil, and attempted the recipe. The result was an oily mound of mush with the consistency ( and possibly flavor of drywall mud. There is something very, very wrong here.

    Wonderful recipe. I used turbot instead of flounder - the point is to pick a fish that can stand up to being poached in this way. We used normal olive oil instead of extra virgin, still pretty great!

    I made this recipe exactly according to instructions, but it turned out very bland. I wouldn't make it again.

    I followed the recipe exactly and everything worked out wonderfully. The fish was perfect. Be careful pouring the oil on the fish, the lemon juice boils/splatters. I will make this again, but three cups of olive oil is a lot! I didn't see this on TV, but I wondered if he commented that you don't need extra virgin. It would seem that taste here is proportional to the quality of oil used. Hence, the oil can easily be more expensive than the fish.

    I don't know what I did wrong. I followed the recipe. It came out soft and oily.

    I would have never thought of cooking fish this way. It was easy and fairly quick to prepare. I will definitely make this again! I heart Alton Brown!

    The oil kept the fish moist and gave a different sensation. What a difference! I will never microwave fish again.
    Straining the oil wasn't as messy as I thought it would be.
    Thanks AB and staff!
