Baked Fish with Tomatoes Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

Baked Fish with Tomatoes Recipe Created by Ruth Paget

I made this dish in Detroit (Michigan) as a teen.  I liked how I could forget it and do homework while the apartment smelled like summer as snowflakes fell outside. 

This recipe is made for using frozen fish.  You will need a covered metal casserole to make this dish.

Serves 4

Preheat the oven to 500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Ingredients:

-2 tablespoons olive oil
-1 large, peeled, and chopped onion
-1 teaspoon dry garlic
-4 frozen white fish fillets
-2 large, peeled, and chopped Idaho potatoes
-1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes with green peppers
-2 tablespoons water or white wine
-2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
-1 cup cream (optional)

Steps:

1-Sauté onions and garlic in olive oil for 5 minutes.  Add water or white wine to the onion mixture and stir.

2-Place the onion mixture in the casserole.  Place fish fillets in the casserole.  Place potato slices around the fish.

3-Pour the diced tomatoes and green peppers on top of the fish fillets and potatoes.   Sprinkle the Italian herbs on top of the diced tomatoes.

4-Cover the casserole and bake for 1 hour.

5-Mix cream with onion mixture and tomatoes for a cream sauce, if desired.
