Ingredients

4 (8-ounce) fish fillets such as red snapper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces creme fraiche
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons minced shallots
2 teaspoons drained capers

Directions

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. (You can also use an ovenproof baking dish.) Place the fish fillets skin side down on the sheet pan. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper.

Combine the creme fraiche, 2 mustards, shallots, capers, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Spoon the sauce evenly over the fish fillets, making sure the fish is completely covered. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until it's barely done. (The fish will flake easily at the thickest part when it's done.) Be sure not to overcook it! Serve hot or at room temperature with the sauce from the pan spooned over the top.

The headline says it all. This recipe had too much mustard for me. This actually really surprised me. I usually love mustard.... Perhaps I will try to recipe again, with much less mustard. Read more

This dish was so easy and sooo flavorful! My husband is a very picky eater and I'm constantly trying to find recipes that... are healthy and that he'll enjoy! He LOVED this fish. I added a little dill to the sauce as well. I will definitely make this dish again and again! Read more

Light & Bright for Dinner 2-Nite!!!!!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Very easy recipe to follow. Loved the use of creme fraiche. You can also use greek yogurt or sour cream if that floats your... boat. I also added fresh meyer lemon zest to add a little acidity to the sauce. Also used Cod instead of Snapper. Dish turned out perfect. The sauce was so refreshing yet rich without being heavy. I would love to serve this at a dinner party because of the exquisite flavors and the low prep/cook times. Read more
