 Are you ready to enjoy the benefits of one of my favorite seafood dishes? A quick baked fish fillet dish made with a cream sauce made to be finger-licking good.

Fish is a favorite seafood for many all around the globe. It provides essential nutrients (good fats and omega-3 fatty acids) that supplement the amounts made by the human body. There is nothing as delicious as baked fish fillets mixed with the cream taste. This dish will stimulate your desire for more and one fascinating about it is that it’s very easy to prepare.

I have been working towards the world where every recipe in the world will get its rightful recognition. I realized that this recipe is prepared elsewhere in a very crude way.  Nobody has ever thought of refining it. I took the opportunity and tried to give the recipe some magic touches to make it perfect. When I talk of magic I don’t mean any complex steps but simple procedures fetched from various sources and combined to perfection to deliver a tasteful dish. I am not mean with ideas and I will showcase my generosity by sharing all the tricks I used to make delicious baked fish fillets with the creamy soup.

I used fresh fish fillets rather than the frozen ones. Fresh fish fillet will be perfectly juicy and tender when baked, and this is core to achieving a delicious and tasteful meal. When the juices of the fish mingle with the cream sauce you will get an irresistible taste of the baked fish fillets. The trick here is to bake the fish fillets on low temperature for long, this is what delivers the required tenderness.

I like the versatility here, you can opt to bake your fish fillets in the oven or in a frying pan. Whichever way you select just stick to the plan, make the fish fillets tender. I actually learned that to get the best taste you should use fish fillets which are about 1.5cm thick. This will ensure the juices seeps through the fillets and they will be tasteful all through.

HOW TO MAKE CREAM SAUCE FOR BAKED FISH FILLETS

The second part of the recipe is the preparation of the sauce. One thing should stick to your mind, the sauce is not  to be gravy-like and thick. It is a light sauce seasoned with lemon to suit the baked fish fillets. The consistency of your sauce will dictate the success of your recipe. The trick here is to first heat the thickening agents (butter and flour) together  to eliminate the raw taste of the flour.

The heating will also prepare the particles of the flour to perfectly absorb the liquid you will use. You also need to enrich your sauce by adding cream. When you add the cream the basic béchamel turns to be the sauce crème. To give you final sauce the desired consistency you must ensure the béchamel or veloute is initially thick enough. Add the béchamel in spoonful as you simmer the sauce. Keep adding and simmering until you sauce is at the right consistency.  The seasoning also matters and the best way is to use salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. You can serve this cream sauce with fish, eggs, veggies & poultry.

The meal will be ready in less than 20 minutes. If you really want to get a feel of what I mean here , just follow the steps keenly and don’t forget to share the experience.
