My husband loves this recipe. It is incredibly easy and fast to make and just about any firm non-oily fish (like cheap tilapia) can be subsituted in. Also, he noticed that the leftovers the next day were even better than the first day due to the sour cream/caper sauce sitting over night. Now every time he makes this recipe he mixes the sour cream and capers the night before; the capers really infuse the sour cream and give it a lovely tang.

Fresh dill contributes sharp flavor and feathery elegance to this simple flounder recipe. Since heat diminishes the potency of fresh dill, it's best to add it to the dish near the end of the suggested cooking time.
