The trick to cooking whitefish is to complement, not overpower. Mushrooms and green onions sauteed in butter add savory notes without drowning out the delicate, flaky fish.

ingredients

1 pound white fish fillets (like tilapia, cod, etc), 1/2 to 3/4" thick, thawed if frozen
salt, to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1 teaspoon snipped fresh tarragon, optional

directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Pat the fish dry with paper toweling and place in a baking dish. Tuck under any thin edges of the fish to create a uniform thickness. Sprinkle the fish lightly with salt.

Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and green onions and cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are tender.

Evenly pour the mushroom mixture over the fish. Sprinkle with the tarragon.

Cover the baking dish with foil and place in the oven. Bake at 450 degrees F for 12-18 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Cook time will depend on the type and thickness of fish used.
