BAKED FISH WITH LEMON CREAM SAUCE (ONE BAKING DISH!)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°C / 390°F (all oven types).
• Place fish in a baking dish - ensure the fish isn't crammed in too snugly. See video or photos in post. Sprinkle both sides of fish with salt and pepper.
• Place butter, cream, garlic, mustard, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a microwave proof jug or bowl. Microwave in 2 x 30 sec bursts, stirring in between, until melted and smooth.
• Sprinkle fish with shallots, then pour over sauce.
• Bake for 10 - 12 minutes, or until fish is just cooked. Remove from oven and transfer fish to serving plates. Spoon over sauce, and garnish with parsley and lemon wedges if using.

CRISPY FISH

Steps:

• In medium bowl, combine the potato flakes, flour, garlic powder, seasoning salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
• Soak fish filets in bowl of cold water.
• In a deep skillet or deep fryer, melt and heat the shortening to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Dredge fish filets in dry mixture and fry in the hot oil for 5 minutes or until fish flakes apart easily. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

AUSSIE CREAMY FISH

Steps:

• Make sauce by combining all ingredients (except fish fillets) in saucepan over medium heat until cheese is melted.
• Place fish fillets into baking dish (one that can go directly onto the table works well). Spoon the sauce onto the fillets.
• Bake at 425 - 450 degrees for 10-15 minutes (for thick fillets), or under the griller (for thin fillets) until cooked and top is browned. Fish should flake easily with a fork; on the other hand, it shouldn't look dried out either. Alternatively, you can also reduce the sauce in a frypan on a medium to hot heat on top of the stove. Turn heat down to medium and then cook the fillets in the sauce.

AUSTRALIAN FISH

Steps:

• Melt butter in skillet over low heat. Add mushrooms and saute over medium heat until tender.
• Rub oil over shallow 4 quart baking dish and sprinkle with grated cheese.
• Place fish on cheese.
• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Add green pepper and top with mushrooms.
• Pour wine over fillets.
• Bake at 450F for 20 minutes or until fish flakes.
• Sprinkle with lemon juice and parsley.

EASY SOUR CREAM AND ONION FISH

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450°F. In a medium bowl, stir together 1½ cups sour cream and 2 tablespoons onion powder. Zest 1 lemon into the bowl. Snip ¾ of 1 small bunch of chives into the bowl with scissors (hold on to the rest). Stir to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, stir together ½ cup panko breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoons olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Pat dry four 6 oz. fish fillets (cod, salmon, halibut, trout) that are max 1½ inches thick. Transfer to a parchment-lined sheet pan, season with salt and pepper, and cover the flesh with a thin layer of the sour cream mixture (reserve the rest). Press the panko mixture on top, then bake until the fish flakes easily and the panko is browned, 10 to 12 minutes per inch of thickness. (If your fish is cooked through before the panko's browned, broil for a minute or two.)
• Meanwhile, squeeze the juice from half the lemon (about 1½ tablespoons) into the remaining sour cream mixture. Slice 1 big head crisp lettuce (romaine, iceberg).
• Divide the lettuce between plates and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and the juice from the remaining lemon. Add the fish to the plates, then snip the remaining chives over. Eat with the sour cream and onion dip.

CREAMY CAJUN FISH

• Sprinkle fish with 1 tsp Cajun seasoning. Heat oil in skillet. Add fish and cook 8 minute or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork, turning once. Remove fish and keep warm.
• Add soup, milk, lemon juice, green onions and remaining Cajun seasoning. Heat through.
• Serve sauce over fish with rice.
