👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease a baking dish with butter or oil.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensuring the dish is well-greased prevents the fish from sticking. - 2
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season them generously with salt and pepper.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Drying the fish helps in achieving a better texture when baked. - 3
In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, chopped dill, minced garlic, and lemon juice. Mix well.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Fresh dill provides the best flavor, but dried dill can be used in a pinch (use about 1 tsp dried). - 4
Place the seasoned fish fillets in the prepared baking dish. Pour the sour cream and dill mixture evenly over the fish.
💡 Consigli Professionali: Ensure the sauce covers the fish for even cooking and flavor distribution. - 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
