An excellent option for cooking pollock in the oven is on an onion “pillow”, with potatoes, in cream. Fish and potatoes are soaked in cream and turn out to be juicy, tender, and fragrant, and the cheese crust on top gives an appetizing look. Delicious and healthy lunch or dinner for the whole family.

Instructions

1. We wash the pollock fillet and dry it with paper towels. You will need foil during the cooking process.
2. Cut the fish into medium slices. Put the fillet pieces in a bowl, fill with milk, and leave for 15-20 minutes. Peel the onion and cut into thin half-rings. Peel the potatoes, rinse and cut into slices 6-7 mm thick. Rub the cheese on a coarse grater.
3. Grease a baking tray with vegetable oil. Put the chopped onion on a baking sheet. (The dimensions of my baking sheet are 30×40 cm.) Using a colander, free the pieces of fish from the milk and put them on the onion tightly to each other.

   

4. Sprinkle the pollock with fish seasoning. We leave a little seasoning for the potatoes. We turn on the oven to warm up to 170-175 degrees. We spread the potato circles with a little overlap (like fish scales).
5. Fill with cream so that it does not cover the potatoes. Sprinkle the potatoes with salt, ground pepper, and the remaining seasoning.
6. Close the baking sheet tightly with foil and send it to an oven preheated to 170-175 degrees for 1-1.5 hours (focus on the readiness of the potatoes). 20 minutes before the end of baking, remove the foil from the baking sheet and send it to the oven until the potatoes are golden brown.
7. Pollock on an onion “pillow”, baked with potatoes, in cream, ready. We serve the dish to the table hot.
