Cod: Baked with Dill and Lemon Sauce

THURSDAY, APRIL 29TH, 2010

4.5 stars (out of 5 - so simple, and so good!)

I wanted to make another fish dish for several reasons: 1) I wanted to expand my "repertoire"; and 2) I wanted to start to make more healthy dishes for SB. I saw this recipe in "Company's Coming" and it looked easy and delicious. Fortunately, it was!

Ingredients:

Cod fillets (boneless) - up to 4 @ ~150-200g (I used 1x 250g)

1/3 cup sour cream
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp dill weed (dry)
1/2 tsp garlic salt

1/3 cup grated Havarti (or old cheddar) cheese

1. {Preheat oven to 350F} First, I mixed the sour cream, lemon juice, garlic salt, and dill together in a small bowl, and set aside.

2. I then grated the cheese... and placed the fish fillets in a baking sheet (with sides), spooning the sour cream mixture over top...

3. ... and sprinkling with cheese.

4. I then placed the fish in the oven for about 12-15 minutes (depending on the size of your fillet... for a 250g fillet, I needed 16 minutes).

5. After the fish was basically cooked, I placed the oven on broil for 2-3 minutes to slightly brown the cheese...

6. ... and served it with a side of couscous (or rice) and asparagus.

Overall, this recipe was SOOOO simple and (apparently) really good. SB really liked all of the different flavours, and also I loved how it didn't make my entire flat smell like fish! I will definitely do it again.
