Found this on eatingwell.com and LOVED it.
You will need:
-1-1 1/4 pounds Pacific cod (see Note) or tilapia fillets, cut into 4 pieces
-3 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme, divided
-1/2 teaspoon salt, divided (I used seasalt instead and noticed no great difference)
-1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper (fresh ground is a must!)
-1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil (I used extra light olive oil instead and it turned out great. I prefer ELOO for cooking and EVOO for salads)
-1 shallot, chopped
-2 cloves garlic, minced
-3/4 cup white wine
-1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes (I like to marinate mine in some thyme and basil in their juice for about 20 minutes)
-1/4 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
-1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
Prep:
1.Season fish with 1 teaspoon thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add shallot, garlic and 1 teaspoon thyme; cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 1 minute. Add wine, tomatoes and the fish to the pan; bring to a simmer. Cover and cook until the fish is cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer the fish to a large plate; keep warm.
2.Whisk cream and cornstarch in a small bowl. Add to the pan, along with the remaining 1 teaspoon thyme and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Divide the fish and sauce among 4 shallow bowls

Sounds good. I wonder if the high sodium is due to the diced tomatoes? You can get no salt added diced tomatoes0
-
Thats a good idea. I will look into it considering I am not fond of such high amounts of sodium in my diet. It totally slows me down and bloats me like no tomorrow.0

Oh I totally agree. I figured out the no salt added diced tomatoes when I made jambalaya and was looking to cut sodium down since the sausage had a lot of sodium already :-/0 -
