Serve-With

Serve this easy "catch" with a mixed-greens salad drizzled with an herb vinaigrette and a loaf of crusty bread.

Variation

For shellfish lovers, try shrimp, clams or mussels as part of the fish in this recipe. Cook 8 to 10 minutes until shrimp are pink and firm or until clams and mussels open.

Special Touch

Toasted bread slices brushed with a little olive oil and sprinkled with shredded Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley make a crunchy and tasty soup topper.
