Best Sour Cream And Chive Sauce Recipes

ROASTED STRIPED BASS WITH CHIVE AND SOUR CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Make sauce:
• Blend sour cream, water, juice, salt, and chives in a blender until mixture just turns pale green. Season with pepper.
• Prepare fish:
• Preheat oven to 450°F.
• Remove any pin bones from fish with tweezers or needle-nose pliers and pat fish dry with paper towels. Score skin in several places with a thin sharp knife to prevent fish from curling (do not cut through flesh) and season fish with salt and pepper.
• Heat oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking, then sear fish, skin sides down, in 2 batches until skin is golden brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes (fish will not be fully cooked). Transfer, skin sides up, to an oiled shallow baking pan.
• Roast fish, uncovered, in middle of oven until just cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Spoon 3 tablespoons sauce onto each of 6 plates and top with potatoes and zucchini. Squeeze a lemon wedge over each fillet, then place fish, skin sides up, over vegetables. Top fish with sprouts.
• *Available at farmers markets.

NITKO'S SOUR CREAM AND CHIVE (DILL) FISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Put the sour cream in a pot; add lemon juice, nutmeg and chive. Cook on gentle fire until cream becomes liquid, like milk. That means the sauce is done.
• Pour the sauce over already arranged fish and potato and serve. Don't panic, the sauce must become hard again. The best is with fresh water fish.
• You can make the same sauce using same amounts of fresh dill. The procedure is the same.
