Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb halibut or other mild white fish thawed if frozen and patted dry with paper towels
  • 4 tbsp sour cream
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp dill weed dried dill leaves
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
  • 3 tbsp sliced green onion
  • salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Thaw frozen halibut overnight in refrigerator, then place in baking dish and blot dry with paper towels.
  • Let the halibut come to room temperature while you prep other ingredients. Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
  • Slice 3 T green onions, then measure 2 T and finely chop them. Reserve the other 1 T sliced onions to garnish the cooked dish.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the sour cream, garlic powder, and dill weed. Stir in the finely grated Parmesan cheese and green onions.
  • When fish has come to room temperature, use a rubber scraper to spread an even coating of this topping over each piece of the fish, using all the topping mixture.
  • Bake fish until the internal temperature reaches 145F/62C, or until fish pieces feel firm but not hard to the touch. (Use a fork to press down to test.) I baked my thick pieces of halibut for 24 minutes, but other types of fish or thinner pieces will cook more quickly.
  • Serve hot, sprinkled with remaining sliced green onions.
