Fish over Spinach with Balsamic Vinegar

I received the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook for Christmas which is where this recipe came from. We are excited to have a new source of wonderful recipes! This cookbook is highly recommended as it includes many recipes that all look delicious, plus basic cooking tips.

Ingredients:
  • 2 fillets of fish of your choice (we used tilapia and salmon)
  • 2 cups of fresh spinach leaves
  • 1/2 onion chopped
  • 1 pepper cut into thin strips
  • 2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 1/2 tbsp. honey
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. olive oil
  • salt and pepper for taste

Directions:

In a skillet cook onion in 1/2 tbsp. of olive oil until tender and golden (approx. 6 min.). Then add the pepper and continue cooking on medium heat until pepper is also tender. Remove from heat, mix onion and pepper with the spinach, and set aside. In the same skillet, cook fish fillets in 1 tbsp. olive oil over medium heat until fish starts to flake (approx. 7 min.). Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper to taste. Once fish is cooked serve over the spinach, onion, and pepper mixture. Mix balsamic vinegar and honey together in a bowl then drizzle over the dish when ready to serve.

Yield: 2 servings
