Grandma Ginger's Fish Casserole

Makes 2 servings

ACTIVE TIME: 20 minutes

TOTAL TIME: 35 minutes

EASE OF PREPARATION: Easy

4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1 medium onion, very thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
8 ounces Pacific cod (see Note) or tilapia, cut into 2 pieces
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup finely chopped whole-wheat country bread (about 1 slice)
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup finely shredded Gruyère or Swiss cheese

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a medium ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until just starting to soften,
4 to 6 minutes. Add wine, increase heat to high and cook, stirring often, until the wine is slightly reduced, 2 to 4 minutes.
3. Place fish on top of the onion and sprinkle with thyme, salt and pepper. Cover the pan tightly with foil; transfer to the oven and bake for 12 minutes.
4. Toss the bread with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil, paprika and garlic powder in a small bowl. Uncover the fish; top with the bread mixture and cheese. Bake, uncovered, until the fish is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes.

TIP: Note: Overfishing and trawling have drastically reduced the number of cod in the Atlantic Ocean and destroyed its sea floor. A better choice is Pacific cod (aka Alaska cod); it is more sustainably fished and has a larger, more stable populace (mbayaq.org/cr/seafoodwatch.asp).
