Best fish recipe I've ever made! Tasted so much like a dish I've tried and failed (until now) to duplicate from a restaurant in Aruba! I added green peppers to mushroom and onions. Topped fish with fresh sliced tomatoes before baking as others had suggested. When the fish was done baking I removed some of the vegetables and sauce and added it to couscous as a side. So good!! Thanks for posting! :)

Yummy! I added sliced Italian green peppers under fish and halved grape tomatoes on top of fish. Didn't have cajun seasoning so I used salt/cayenne pepper/Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime/garlic powder. Served over brown rice ... Delish!
(..and I did the 10 mins for onions, etc. before adding fish :)

This was so easy and so delicious. I took the advice of the other reviews and baked the mushrooms and onions for 10 minutes before adding the fish. I served it with mashed butternut squash! It was a fantastic dinner!
