Ingredients:

Fish

3 pieces of white fish fillets

2 tsp Dijon mustard

olive oil spray

salt and pepper

½ cup breadcrumbs

1 tbsp parsley, finely chopped

2 tbsp parmesan (grated)

1 garlic clove, minced

1 tbsp olive oil

Pinch of salt

Brown rice

1½ cups of brown rice

3 cups of water

Sauce

1 cup of bacon, diced

½ punnet of cherry tomatoes

1 cup baby peas, steamed

2 teaspoons of ginger honey

1 lemon, juiced

Method:

Pre-heat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

Line 2 baking trays with oven-proof baking paper.

Brown rice

In a saucepan add the Brown rice and water. Bring to the boil and when just boiling, simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. When the water has been soaked up, turn off and let stand for about 5-10 minutes.

Fish

On each piece of white fish fillets brush with Dijon mustard and season with salt and pepper and spray olive oil.

In a separate bowl add breadcrumbs, finely chopped parsley, grated parmesan, minced garlic, olive oil and a pinch of salt. Stir to combine.

Cook the fish for 1½ on one side in a fry-pan and then place the cooked side down on the baking paper lined tray. Sprinkle the breadcrumb mix over the top and put in oven for 5-10 minutes or until the crumb is golden in colour.

Sauce

In a frypan add diced bacon, cherry tomatoes cut in half, and steamed baby peas. Add ginger honey and lemon juice and simmer for about 5 minutes.

Serve with rice, fish and topped with bacon/tomato/pea sauce.
