Sour cream along with butter and parmesan gives these baked fillets a mouthwatering topping. Add tabasco if you like it hot.
1 1/2 pound pollock
3/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Place the fish in the greased baking dish in a single layer.
In a bowl, stir together the sour cream, Parmesan cheese, melted butter, salt, and pepper. Mix well then spread evenly over the pollock fillets.
Place the baking dish in the oven and cook, uncovered, at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or until the fish is cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve hot.
For added flavor, include a teaspoon of garlic powder or lemon zest in the sour cream mixture.
Make sure to not overcook the fish or it will end up dry.
Letting the fish rest for a few minutes after baking makes it easier to serve.
Try adding herbs like dill or parsley to the sour cream mixture.
Garnish with lemon slices or fresh herbs for an extra touch.
If the sour cream mixture is too thick, thin it with a little milk or lemon juice.
Try serving the baked pollock with rice or quinoa to soak up the delicious sauce.
Always check the fish for bones before baking, especially if using a different type of fish.
Yes, other white fish like cod, haddock, or tilapia can be used as substitutes.
Greek yogurt or creme fraiche can be used as alternatives.
Grated Romano or Asiago cheese can be used, or any hard, aged cheese.
Olive oil can be used as a healthier alternative, but it will change the flavor slightly.
White pepper can be used for a milder flavor.
Add a few dashes of Tabasco sauce or a pinch of cayenne pepper to the sour cream mixture.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and reheat gently in the oven or microwave.
It's best enjoyed fresh, as freezing may affect the texture of the topping.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

Easy and taste great! Making it again tonight 😃
This might be a stupid question but do you cook the fish from froze?
If you are using frozen fish then, yes, you'll want to thaw it first.

My Mom taught me how to bake fish with mayonnaise, paprika Breadcrumbs and lemon when I was young. Im not going to slam my Mom so this dish is a close second.
How do I freeze this and then defrost it?
We don't recommend freezing this recipe.

I loved it.

Fabulous!! The first time I made it exactly as the recipe read and it was delicious. Iâm a garlic and lemon lover so the second time I did ad my own personal touches. I again followed the recipe with the addition of 1 garlic clove finely chopped and the juice of a half a lemon. I also substituted 1/4 mayonnaise for the sour cream as I didnât have all of the sour cream on hand. This variation, in my biased opinion was oh so worth the extra steps. Either way I highly recommend to try this recipe. Thanks oh so much!

ItÂis surprisingly good. I used frozen pollock fillet and had enough sour cream but not even 2Tbs of Parmesan and I omitted butter, still came out delicious. I fried them yesterday but felt little greasy so I looked for baked or pan fried. IÂfm glad I found this recipe. Thank you for sharing.

Pollock is pretty cheap to buy here so I've been trying to use it more. This was good but I thought it needed something. I think maybe adding bread crumbs on top might help.

I'm a strict vegetarian, so I didn't eat this but made it for my boyfriend and he loved it.

This is the best fish recipe that I have ever made and it's so simple! My whole family loves it. If you're one of those people that don't like fish that tastes too fishy-this is the recipe to make. It's delicious. It's great with rice and asparagus.

Needed a recipe for some Pollock I bought on sale. This one sounded easy. I never expected it to be this good. Whole family loved it. Try adding cut up crab meat (I used the fake stuff) to the sauce. delicious!

I picked it because it was easy, quick, and I had all the ingredients. I never thought it would be as good as it was. What a great surprise!!
