Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-8 ounces each) Fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia)
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 3 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 2 tablespoons Fresh dill (chopped)
• 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with a small amount of melted butter or cooking spray.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them in the prepared baking dish in a single layer.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Spread the sour cream mixture evenly over the fish fillets, ensuring each fillet is well coated.

Step 5

Sprinkle the chopped fresh dill over the coated fish for added flavor.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with the grated Parmesan cheese and melted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 7

Evenly sprinkle the breadcrumb topping over the fish fillets, covering the sour cream layer completely.

Step 8

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The breadcrumb topping should be golden brown and crispy.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the baked fish hot, garnished with additional fresh dill or lemon wedges, if desired. Enjoy!
