GREEK BAKED FISH WITH TOMATOES AND ONIONS
The robust flavors in the tomato sauce work well with a variety of white fishes. If you have traveled in the Greek Islands, chances are you have had this fish. Use a white-fleshed fish that will stand up to the robust flavors in the tomato sauce. From the Monterey Bay Aquarium's list of best choices I recommend Pacific cod or halibut, black cod or striped bass. From the "Good Alternatives" list I recommend Mahi Mahi from United States waters.

Steps:
- Pat the fish dry and season to taste with salt and pepper. Oil one or two baking dishes large enough to accommodate the fish in one layer. Lay the fish in the dish and pour on the lemon juice. Refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the onions. Cook, stirring often, until they have softened and begun to color slightly, 8 to 10 minutes. Add a generous pinch of salt and the garlic and cook, stirring, until the garlic is fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Stir in the tomatoes, sugar, paprika, cinnamon, dissolved tomato paste, wine, half the parsley and more salt and pepper to taste and bring to a simmer. Simmer uncovered, stirring often, until the sauce has cooked down a bit and is very fragrant, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and pour over the fish. Sprinkle on the remaining parsley.
- Place in the oven and bake until the fish is opaque and pulls apart easily with a fork, about 30 minutes. Baste the fish every 10 minutes if it is not submerged in the sauce. Serve hot or warm, with rice, bulgur, or potatoes.

GREEK GRILLED FISH
Great for summer grilling and one of our favorite recipes. For variety you may make this using a variety of Greek herbs and spices - I do! Like adding a grating of black pepper just before it's done. Note ... I have never used the optional bay leaves - when using my fresh from the garden thyme or the organic packet of fresh herbs from the market - I let it dry before using and have added - "but dry it first!"to the ingredient list.

Steps:
- Rinse and pat dry.
- Lightly salt both sides, set in a colander over a bowl refrigerate until ready to grill.
- Fire up the grill - brush grill with olive oil to prevent sticking (a hand held grid makes turning easier).
- If you wish to lay aluminium foil on the grill poke several holes through foil or make the base with the dried thyme, rosemary branches and bay leaves directly on grill, be sure to overlap so they cover a slightly bigger area then the fish.
- In a small bowl combine the lemon juice and olive oil, brush fish with the mixture, sprinkle lightly with the coarse thyme or oregano - baste frequently with the lemon/olive oil mixture.
- Cover the fish loosely with aluminium foil to keep moist.
- Cook about 20 minutes or until fish flakes readily when prodded with a fork in the thickest part.

GRILLED FISH FILLETS OR STEAKS
Fish steaks are relatively foolproof - they're practically designed for grilling. It always helps to make sure the grill is clean and well oiled just before you put the fish on. Just hold some paper towels in tongs and dip them in a small bowl of oil, then rub on the grates.

Steps:
- Heat a charcoal or gas grill until quite hot, and put the rack 3 or 4 inches from the heat source. Drizzle the flesh of the fish with olive oil, and sprinkle it with salt and pepper.
- When the fire is ready, grill the fish for about 5 minutes, or until it's firm enough to turn. Turn, and grill until done, usually another 3 to 5 minutes. When done, the fish will still be firm and juicy but opaque, and a thin-bladed knife will pass through it fairly easily. Serve with tomato salsa.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Fish: Select firm-fleshed fish fillets such as cod, tilapia, salmon, or halibut for best results.
- Marinate the Fish: Marinating the fish in a flavorful mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, herbs, and spices enhances its taste and keeps it moist during cooking.
- Preheat the Broiler: Preheat the broiler to high heat to ensure the fish cooks evenly and quickly.
- Use a Well-Seasoned Pan: Broil the fish in a well-seasoned grill pan or baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Cook the Fish Just Until Done: Avoid overcooking the fish, as it can dry out quickly under the broiler. Cook until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve Immediately: Broiled Greek fish fillets are best served immediately with your favorite sides such as roasted vegetables, grilled lemon wedges, or a tangy sauce.
