My Saturday Foodie Post...Another Fish Dish! With a South of the Border twist.

For my Saturday Foodie Post, here is another dish I made a few nights ago with Cod. I was in a "I want Mexican food" kind of mood, so here's what I came up with.

Cod Fillets that I sprinkled with some cayenne pepper, a little garlic powder and salt.

Into a hot cast iron skillet with some olive oil they went, where I browned them on each side.  Probably about two minutes per side.  

 I had made up some white rice, and while the water was boiling I added some Rotel Diced Tomatoes, with green chiles and lime.

After the fish was browned, it went into a 350 degree oven, topped with a little Monterey Jack Cheese.  I cooked it just until the cheese melted and the fish was cooked all the way through.  Probably another five minutes. 

As the fish was finishing up in the oven, I heated a stir fry pan with a little olive oil.  Baby spinach got tossed in, along with a dolop of some Onion and Pepper Relish that I get at the Harry and David Store...this was cooked to a light saute.

Once everything is done cooking, serve up with some diced green onion and cilantro on top, with a side of lime and a dolop of sour cream topped with avacado slices. 

Enjoy!

Thanks, Courtney!  I like the Fiestaware too!  (Hubby got me some Tangerine colored plates for Christmas, too) and I told him for my upcoming birthday that "nothing says I love you like Scarlett Fiestaware Salad plates!"   lol
