Ingredients

• 4 pieces white fish fillets (e.g., cod, sole, or halibut)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup whole milk
• 0.5 cup heavy cream
• 0.25 cup dry white wine
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 0.25 cup breadcrumbs

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish large enough to hold the fish fillets in a single layer.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with a pinch of salt and ground black pepper. Set them aside.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the milk, followed by the heavy cream, and cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the dry white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional minute, then remove the sauce from heat.

Step 6

Arrange the fish fillets in the prepared baking dish and pour the cream sauce evenly over the top, ensuring the fillets are fully covered.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese and breadcrumbs. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the fish and sauce.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the topping is golden and bubbly.

Step 9

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Garnish with additional fresh parsley or dill, if desired, and serve warm with rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables.
