This yummy fish bakes in a cheesy butter, lemon and milk sauce
and is rather simple to make.
Fish Fillets in Cheese Sauce
1-1/2 pounds (675 g) fish fillets
6 T (90 ml) butter, divided
2 T (30 ml) lemon juice
3 T (45 ml) flour
Salt and pepper
1 cup (240 ml) milk
3 T (45 ml) grated cheese
Melt 2 T (30 ml) butter in an ovenproof casserole dish big enough
to hold fish without layering the fillets too deep, and stir in lemon
juice. Add fish fillets and bake at 350 F (180 C), basting
occasionally, for 4-5 minutes. Remove from oven. Melt 2 T (30
ml) butter in a small saucepan, stir in flour, salt and pepper to
taste and cook, stirring, until bubbly. Gradually stir in milk and
bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and fold in 2
T (30 ml) cheese. Pour cheese sauce over fish, sprinkle with
remaining cheese and dot with remaining butter. Return to the
oven for 10-12 minutes until top is browned and fish is done.
Makes 4 servings.
