Ingredients
- 2 walleye fillets
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 tablespoons heavy cream
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 small shallot, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (coarse ground)
- ½ teaspoon dried dill (or fresh, chopped)
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- Grated zest of 1 lemon
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Freshly chopped parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Rinse the walleye fillets with cold water and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Set in a sprayed baking dish or rimmed cookie sheet, skin side down.
- Combine the butter, heavy cream, garlic, shallot, mustard and dill in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat for 10-20 seconds, or until the butter is melted. Mix well.
- Allow the cream mixture to cool slightly if hot, then divide it among the fish, pouring the mixture over the fillets to cover. Bake in a 400°F oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, cracked pepper and lemon zest. Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as a salad and wild rice.
