This fish recipe is made with a creamy red pepper sauce with sour cream and red bell pepper and other ingredients.

Ingredients:

  • 1 to 1 1/2 pounds fish fillets
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, finely chopped (reserve a few strips of red bell pepper for garnish, if desired)
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon finely minced onion
  • 2 cups water
  • 3 tablespoon dry sherry
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • dash salt, or to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules or base

Preparation:

If using large fillets, cut into 4 to 6 serving size pieces.

In saucepan over medium-low heat, melt butter; add red pepper and onion then cook until tender.

In a large skillet over medium heat, heat water and sherry to boiling. Add fish; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 8 to 12 minutes, or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Remove fish from liquid and place on platter.

Into the red pepper mixture in saucepan; stir sour cream, milk, salt, and chicken bouillon. Heat through. Pour sauce over fish and garnish with strips of red pepper, if desired.
Serves 4 to 6.
