    Preparation Steps

    1

    Clean the fish fillets, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle with lemon juice. Let them rest for 10 minutes.

    2

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the butter. Sear the fish fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Set aside.

    3

    To make the dill sauce, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to create a roux.

    4

    Gradually whisk in the water, ensuring a smooth consistency. Stir in the sour cream and finely chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

    5

    Simmer the sauce over low heat for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    6

    To serve, place the pan-seared fish fillets on a plate, drizzle with the dill sauce, and serve with a fresh salad or cooked rice.
