Baked Cheesy Fish

Baked Fish And Rice

This is a delicious, quick recipe that I found on the internet.  It's great when time is running away and all you want is a meal that makes you feel full and satisfied.  It is a slight variation of the  original recipe I found on www.tasteofhome.com 

 I tweaked it to suit our tastes and used ingredients in my refrigerator.  As long as you follow the steps, the ingredents could be whatever you choose.  Since fish is a big favourite in our household this was an instant hit.

The Recipe:
2 soup cubes; 1/2 cup basmathi rice, washed and drained; 1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning; 3 cloves garlic, minced fine; 3 cups mixed, cooked vegetables ( I used broccoli, peas and onions); 1 tbsp cheese, grated; 3 large onions, sliced and fried golden brown; 500 gms boneless fish, washed and drained completely; 1 tsp chilli flakes; 125 gms mozzarella cheese, grated; 1/1/2 cups water.

Mix the water, soup cubes, rice, Italian seasoning and minced garlic in a large wok.  Bring to the  boil. Transfer to a greased rectangular 11" by 7 " pyrex dish. Cover and bake at 375° for 10 minutes. Add the vegetables, cheese and  half  the onions in a layer on top of the rice.  Top with fish fillets and sprinkle with chilli flakes;  

Cover and bake 20-25 minutes longer or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Uncover; sprinkle with mozzarella cheese, remaining onions and more chilli flakes if desired.  Serve as soon as the cheese is melted.  

This is a great dish for holidays when you want to spend a minimal time in the kitchen.
