I USED YELLOW PEPPER IN PLACE OF THE SQUASH I DIDN'T HAVE OLIVES AND FOR EACH HERB I USED 1TLBS DRY (RUBBED GOOD FOR MORE FLAVOR).IT WAS GREAT! MY HUSBAND LOVED IT!
While not a 5-star dish which I take to mean "memorable " this is still very good. I halved the recipe for the two of us and substituted Italian parsley for the cilantro. I also added some chunky portabella mushrooms and minced fresh garlic. I wasn't sure how the Balsamic vinegar would fly in this recipe and was tempted not to use it. But in fairness to Lenie's recipe I did use it and it was amazingly delicious! Eating this we felt we really were doing something healthy and good for our bodies--very little fat few calories nutritious vegetables and the right type of carbs. We enjoyed this and ate every last bit of it! Definitely worth making again or trying for the first time.
I didn't cook veggies first just piled veggies on a sheet of foil topped with fish (seasoned salt and lots of pepper on fish) drizzled with evoo and balsamic (more balsamic to taste) sealed it up and popped in toaster convection oven. Used dried basil and cilantro cuz I was out of fresh. Didn't have the zucc but added in some broccoli it worked. Served over brown rice. Really enjoyed it thanks!
I was so pleased to see that my recipe was used and enjoyed. Let me share something very important about one of the ingredients....OLIVES a very lovely taste is layered in with there usage and please enjoy lots of cilantro with it too!
The veggies were good- the fish was pretty flavorless even though I drizzled olive oil and fresh lemon-pepper over it. I used halibut (maybe my fish was bad or something). I think I will eat the leftover veggies over rice but maybe use the rest of the fish in a fish chowder or something.
This recipe really surprised my family! I skipped the olives but followed the rest of the recipe. I loved the way all the vegetable flavors mived with the herbs. The zucchini added a tiny bit of cunchiness and fresh cilantro a bit of a zing. My 10 year old son tried it and ended up asking for seconds. I served it with mashed potatoes and we all loved it!
This was really good! My dad has high cholesterol so I made it for my parents as a healthy dish. Substituted tilapia for cod. Next time I would add less onion and another tomato.
A great new way to cook fish. Very tasty. I used whole green pepper 8 oz of baby portobello mushrooms and 3/4 of yellow squash skipped olives and zucchini. I thought that balsamic vinegar will taste too sour so I used sherry cooking wine instead. Also to reduce "fishy smell" I added 1/4 fresh ginger root very thinly sliced. The fish and the vegetables were very tender. My boyfriend is not a big fan of squash but he did not even noticed it in the dish! A little too much sauce for my taste but definitely will make again!
Lots of prep time for this one but it pays off! Very good and light. We loved all the veggies and herbs.
