Step by Step guide

Step 1

Meanwhile, place the thinly sliced mushrooms in a skillet, add the remaining butter, and pour in the lemon juice. Cover with a lid and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes.

Step 2

Add the cream and heat the sauce without bringing it to a boil. Remove the parsley stems from the dish.

Step 3

Reduce the baking temperature to 230°F, pour the mushroom sauce over the steaks, and return to the oven for another 5 minutes. Serve immediately after baking directly in the dish.

Step 4

Preheat the oven to 356°F. Pour the corn oil into a baking dish.

Step 5

Cut the hake fillet into 6 steaks. Season the steaks with salt on both sides and lay them in a single layer at the bottom of the dish. Pour in the white wine and 5 tablespoons of lemon juice, placing the parsley stems between the pieces of fish. Sprinkle each steak with 1 teaspoon of breadcrumbs and place a piece of butter on top (leave a little less than half for later). Bake in the oven for 10 minutes (the fish should be golden brown).
