Ingredients

  • 1 lb smoked haddock fillets
  • 1 bag (about 10 oz) fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a blend of cheeses)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Cook the spinach: In a large pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Prepare the haddock: In a baking dish, place the smoked haddock fillets. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Make the creamy sauce: In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat. Stir in the Dijon mustard (if using) and 3/4 cup of the shredded cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  • Assemble the bake: Layer the sautéed spinach over the haddock fillets in the baking dish. Pour the creamy cheese sauce evenly over the top, then sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup of shredded cheese.
  • Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the fish is cooked through.
  • Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
