Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add diced onion and cook, stirring, until softened and just starting to brown, about 3 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Stir in tomato paste and cook for 1 minute until fragrant and slightly darkened.

  3. Step 3

    Pour in broth and bring to a simmer. Add cherry tomatoes, season with salt and pepper, and simmer for 3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Gently nestle fish fillets into the liquid. Cover and simmer until fish flakes easily with a fork, 6–8 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Divide rice between bowls, top with fish and sauce, then scatter microgreens on top.
