This is the kind of dinner you make when you want something warm and flavorful, but don’t have the patience for a long simmer. Everything comes together fast, the sauce does most of the work, and the fish cooks right at the end.

Serving idea
Serve with plain rice or warm flatbread to soak up the sauce.
This works best eaten right away while the fish is tender.
