This made a super quick and easy dinner last night served with fresh garden green beans. I used cod fillets and eliminated the water called for with the onions. After sprinkling the dish with the cheese, I covered it and allowed it to stand for a few minutes. The cheese melted nicely and everything was cooked to perfection. Made for Zingo during *ZWT 5*
