Basil Tomato Fish

  • Fresh or frozen halibut or salmon...or whatever you have
  • 1/2 c. chopped onion
  • 1 clove garlic, minced...I used garlic powder to taste
  • 1 Tbs. olive oil
  • 2 c. peeled, chopped tomato...I just used one lg. one for us
  • 4 Tbs. fresh basil
  • 2 Tbs. butter, melted
  1. Thaw fish, if frozen.  Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towel.  Set aside.  In medium skillet cook onion and garlic in hot oil until tender.  Stir in tomato and 1/4 tsp. salt and 1/4 tsp. pepper.  Bring to boil (I added about 1/4 cup of water too.)  then reduce heat.  Simmer for 15 min.  Stir in 2 Tbs. basil
  2. Meanwhile, combine remaining basil and melted butter and brush over one side of fish
  3. (Line fish pan with tinfoil)  Place fish, brushed side up on pan, and broil 4 inches from heat for 8 to 12 min. or until fish begins to flake when tested with a fork.  
  4. Season fish with additional salt and pepper.  Serve with tomato mixture.
