Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb haddock fillets (fresh or frozen) or 1 lb cod fish fillet (fresh or frozen)
1 small onion, thinly sliced (almost 2/3 cup)
2 tablespoons water
8 ounces picante sauce
1 medium tomatoes, chopped (a little more than 2/3 cup)
1/2 cup sliced ripe olives
2 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (1/2 cup)

Steps:

Thaw fish, if frozen.
Place sliced onion in a single layer in the bottom of an ungreased 12 x 7 1/2 x 2-inch microwave-safe baking dish.
Add water. Cover with vented clear plastic wrap.
Microwave on 100% power (HIGH) for 3-4 minutes or until onion is crisp-tender.
Place fish fillets on top of onion slices and cook, covered, for 4-5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, giving the dish a half turn after 3 minutes.
Drain well.
Spoon picante sauce, tomato, and olives over fish.
Cook, uncovered, about 2 minutes more or until heated through.
Top with cheese. Cook for 1 minute or until cheese is melted.
