Lemon-Chive Sole with Baked Squash

Lemon-Chive Sole with Baked Squash

2 medium yellow summer squash, cut into 1/8-inch-thick rounds
1 serving olive oil cooking spray, or enough to coat squash
1/2 tsp table salt, or to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper, or to taste
1 1/4 pound sole, four 5 oz fillets
1/2 cup fat-free chicken broth
2 T. fresh lemon juice
1 T. honey mustard
2 tsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp lemon zest
1 T. chives, fresh, minced
4 cup sugar snap peas, steamed

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray. Place squash rounds on middle of baking sheet; coat with cooking spray and season to taste with salt and pepper. Season both sides of sole fillets with salt and pepper; place sole on top of squash. Bake until fish is fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk together broth, lemon juice, mustard, cornstarch and lemon zest. Set pan over medium heat and simmer until sauce thickens, stirring frequently with a wire whisk, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chives. Transfer squash, sole and snap peas to individual plates and spoon lemon sauce over top of fish. Yields 4 servings; about 1 fillet, 1 cup of snap peas, 1/3 cup of squash and 2 T. of sauce per serving.
