one fish, two fish...nope, just one fish

There are few things I love more than being able to make dinner with nothing more than what's already in my fridge. And when it only takes 20 minutes then it's like kitchen magic. The following was so simple I kind of can't even believe how good it was. But sometimes simple is best, right?

Haddock with Tomatoes and Garlic over Polenta

1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon oil
2 pieces of white fish
2 cups of tomatoes, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1/4 cup polenta
1 cup water
salt, pepper and cajun seasoning and parmesan cheese to taste

Heat butter and oil in a non-stick pan. Lightly sprinkle fish with salt, pepper and cajun seasoning. Pan fry fish until done, remove to plate. Add tomatoes and garlic to the pan the fish was fried in, scraping up any browned bits. Cook until the tomatoes are just heated through.

Boil water. Add polenta and stir until cooked.

To plate: Add polenta to the plate the fish has been resting on. Pour sauce over both polenta and fish. Sprinkle polenta with parmesan cheese.
