How to bake white fish in the oven? It's very simple. First, prepare the necessary ingredients for the sauce on the list. Cream can be used with a fat content of 20 to 33%, but consider that the higher the fat percentage of the products you use, the higher the calorie content of the dish will be. Adjust the amount of lemon juice to your liking.

Pre-melt the butter. In a bowl, combine the cream, melted butter, lemon juice, mustard and garlic cloves passed through the press. Salt everything, pepper and mix thoroughly until smooth. The sauce will turn out to be medium thick. If the sauce seems too sour to you, you can slightly dilute it with cream.

Now prepare the fish. For the recipe, fillet of any white or red fish is suitable. Fish can be taken fresh or frozen. Frozen fish must be pre-thawed by transferring it from the freezer to the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. I have fresh walleye fillet.

Rinse the fish fillet and dry well. I used a ready-made walleye fillet. You can take a whole fish and cut it yourself into fillet. You can also use pressed fillet in briquettes.

Peel and finely chop the bulb. You can replace onions with shallots or red onions.

Finely chop the parsley. If desired, you can replace or supplement with other herbs, for example, dill, cilantro, green onions or use a mixture of different herbs.

Cut the lemon into semicircles. Lemon can also be added to your liking. Before adding lemon, taste it better: the skin (the white part between the zest and flesh) can be very mustard. In this case, do not add lemon to the fish. Limit yourself to the juice in the sauce. Or cut the zest and white flesh.

Place the fillets in a baking dish. Salt, pepper and sprinkle over the crushed onions.

Pour the creamy lemon sauce over the fish. Arrange the lemon slices on top. Place the tin in the oven preheated to 200 ° C for 10-15 minutes. The exact time depends on your technique, products and personal preferences. If you use red fish, it will most likely take a little longer to bake it.

Sprinkle the finished fish in a white sauce with the crushed greens and serve. Enjoy your meal!
