Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat the 2 fish fillets dry and season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a grill pan over medium-high heat.

  2. Step 2

    Place the fish in the pan and cook until the bottom is golden and the fish flakes easily, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from heat.

  3. Step 3

    While the fish cooks, slice the tomato and half onion into thin rounds. Cut the lemon into wedges.

  4. Step 4

    Divide the 2 cups cooked rice between two plates. Top with the grilled fish, tomato slices, and onion slices.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over.
