Pollock with Creamy Parmesan Sauce

A mixture of butter, sour cream, and Parmesan cheese, the cream sauce on this piece of Maine Pollock got high praise from my significant other. They suggested it would also be great on chicken.

The lemon and sour cream give this some real tang. This starts with simply squeezing lemon over the fish, then generously dust it with your choice of seasoning. I used a fish-specific mix called “Harbor Master” from a Maine spice company.
