Baked Fish in Cream Sauce / Peste la cuptor cu sos de smantana

Directions

1.  Rinse and remove any bones from the fish (thaw completely if frozen). You may remove the skin, if desired. Pre-heat oven to medium high.

2.  Flatten out the fillets and rub all over with butter and a generous amount of paprika.

3.  Place the fish in a baking dish and cover the fish fillets with the sour cream. Cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil.

4.  Place the fish in a medium-high (or medium) temperature oven and bake for 45 minutes or until cooked through.  The fish is cooked through when the flesh flakes easily when pressed with a fork.

5.  Remove fish from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley.                                            

 

Notes: Serve this dish up hot with slices of lemon. It’s delicious over a bed of fettuccine noodles tossed with butter, salt, and pepper.

 

Substitutions: Butter/Oil. Sour cream/Cream/Milk. Fresh parsley/Fresh dill (or dried).
