Time 35m

Yield 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 lb catfish fillet
4 medium sized tomatoes
3 1/2 ounces orzo pasta
3 sage leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons basil leaves, chopped
2 tablespoons oregano leaves, chopped
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese, grated
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 lime, juice of
salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven (375 F, 200 C).
  • Cut tomatoes into small pieces. Place in an oven-proofed casserole.
  • Add orzo pasta, sugar, chopped herb leaves, water and salt to taste. Mix well.
  • Put fish filet on this bed of tomatoes and orzo pasta. Drizzle the lime juice over fishfilets and mixture. Salt the fish filet to taste.
  • Mix breadcrumbs, parmesan and olive oil in small bowl. Sprinkle this mixture over the fish filets.
  • Put into oven and bake for 20 minutes until cooked and crust is lightly brown.
  • Take out and serve with green salad.
  • NOTE: You can replace the catfish filet by other fresh or frozen fish filet. Choose the fish you like best.
  • NOTE: The orzo pasta is not pre-cooked in this recipe. I like it that way, because the pasta will remain more "al dente".
