4 teaspoons extra-vergin olive oil
1 medium onion, very thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
8 ounces Pacific Cod or Tilapia cut into two peices
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup finely chopped whole wheat bread (about a slice)
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup finley shredded Gruyere or Swiss cheese

1. Preheat oven to 400 F
2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in medium oven proof skillet (we just poured it all into a cassarole dish to put it in the oven). Add onion and cook, stirring often, until just starting to soften, 4-6 minutes. Add wine, increase heat to high and cook, stirring often, until the wine is slightly reduced, 2-4 minutes.
3.Place fish ontop of the onion and sprinkle with thyme, salt and pepper. Cover the pan tightly with foil; transfer to the oven and bake for 12 minutes.
4. Toss the bread with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil, paprika and garlic powder in a small bowl. Uncover the fish; top with bread mixture and cheese. Bake uncovered, until the fish is just cooked through, 8-10 minutes.
We had it with white wine, salad, asparagus and small slices of garlic toasted wheat baquette.


For dessert, I made fruit parfaits!
4 small slices of pound cake, diced
1 box vanilla pudding
strawberries
blueberries
cool whip

Layer in glasses top with a strawberry! (if I had taller glasses, I would do multiple layers of cake, pudding and fruit, and top the glass with whip.)

We drank/cooked with this wine:


It was Two Vines Columbia Crest Riesling (Washington State 2008). So yummy. It was light and crisp and kind of sweet. It was amazing in the recipie. Definately one I will get again!

Today's Song: Bella Luna-Jason Mraz
"Intertwining like a ring around the finger, of a girl
I'm just a singer, you're the world
All I can bring ya
Is the language of a lover
Bella luna, my beautiful beautiful moon
How you swoon me like no other"
