Preparation

Step 1

1. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the fish fillets on the baking sheet in a single layer, at least 1-inch apart. Sprinkle both sides of the fish with the salt, rubbing in the salt a bit. Set the baking sheet aside. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

2. In a medium size bowl, combine the tomatoes, spinach, lemon juice, sour cream, and cheeses. Mix to combine well and set the bowl aside.

3. Place the baking sheet, with just the plain salted fish, in the preheated oven and bake for 3 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, and divide the tomato & spinach mixture evenly among the tops of the fish fillets. Return the fish to the oven and bake until the fish is opaque throughout, and the cheese in the topping has melted and is fragrant, about 10 minutes.

4. Remove the fish from the oven and serve immediately on top of cooked brown rice. A complete meal – protein, whole grain, vegetable. Done.
