CREOLE FISH ORLEANS

PAM                                           1 cup chopped onion

1/2 cup sliced celery                    1 tsp. minced garlic

1 16 oz, can undrained tomatoes   1 bay leaf

1 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce        hot pepper sauce to taste

1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms       1-1/2 Ibs. fish fillets*

 

 

*Sole, flounder or other firm, lowfat fish. Spray large skillet with PAM & saute onion, celery & garlic 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, bay leaf, W sauce & hot pepper sauce. Simmer 15 minutes or until thickened. Add mushrooms, roll fillets & arrange in sauce. (If thick fillets, just arrange without rolling them.) Cook 10-15 minutes longer on low heat until fish is done. Remove bay leaf from sauce & discard. Spoon sauce around fish. Yield 4 servings - approximately 273 calories, 12 grams fat & 85 mg. cholesterol/serving.
 
NOTE: I might use Creole seasoning instead of hot pepper sauce with this dish. Maybe even substitute other seafood such as scallops or shrimp & serve over rice.
