Italian-style White Fish Filets

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or dried
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon dried cilantro
1 1/2 cups of chicken broth
1 tablespoon corn starch
1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper (or to taste)
1 pound White fish filets (I used Cod)

*1/2 cup sliced black olives or mushrooms (or both, optional)

Directions

In a medium to large microwaveable, glass dish, add olive oil and onion and garlic. Cover and cook on high heat for 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, chicken broth, parsley, cilantro and Italian seasoning. Add the tablespoon of corn starch to just enough cold water to dissolve it and add to the sauce. Add the optional mushrooms or black olives. Stir well and add the fish fillets on top. Cover and cook on high for 2 more minutes. Turn fish and stir sauce. Cook another 2 minutes and stir. Check to see if fish is done. If not, cook 1 more minute and filets should be done (turned white) and sauce should be thickened. Serve over rice.


My husband hates cod, but he really liked this. I like my fish plain; fried, broiled, grilled or baked with lemon or tarter sauce on the side. I liked this too!
