Instructions

  1. Place the fish fillets next to each other in a large, greased dish, drizzle with lemon and season with salt.
  2. Prepare a paste of pesto, sheep cheese, crème fraîche, Emmental cheese, olive oil, garlic and parsley (works well in a blender, but can also be finely cut or chopped by hand). Carefully season the paste to taste. Salt is usually no longer necessary.
  3. Brush the fish with the paste. Spread the potato pieces in between, drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with thyme. Fry in the oven at 200 ° C top / bottom heat for approx. 20 - 30 minutes. If too little liquid forms, pour in some white wine.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
