Fish Fillets With Mushroom-Lemon Sauce - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 lb fresh mushrooms, sliced
4 -6 green onions, chopped
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (half the amount if using dried)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lemon rind, grated
1/8 teaspoon pepper
24 ounces fish fillets (6 4-oz fillets of tilapia, snapper, grouper, orange roughy)

Preparation

Saute mushrooms and green onions in butter in a large skillet until the vegetables are tender. Add flour, stirring well. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually stir in the milk.
Add parsley, salt, grated lemon rind, and pepper. Bring to a boil.
Arrange the fish fillets in a single layer over the sauce in the skillet; carefully spoon the sauce over the fillets. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 12 to 15 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork (depends on the thickness of your fillets).
Serve the fish topped with the sauce.
