Fisheses!

I'm thinking I want to cook some fish tonight. I could stop at Coastal Seafoods on my way home, and pick up . . . what?

Frankly, I hardly ever cook fish because no one in my family will eat it except for me (other than canned tuna, which Rob will eat). In fact, the girls gag and turn green whenever I've cooked and offered salmon, for example.

However, I'm learning a lot about my diet since joining SparkPeople, and one of the things I'm learning is that I need more Omega-3.

Since LiveJournal is the Sum of All Knowledge, anyone have any easy fish recipes to suggest for a neophyte fish cook? No sardines or herrings: something for a mild-tasting fish, because I will offer the girls a bite (although they may refuse). Halibut, or tilapia? Ideas?

There's a few nice fish-in-foil recipes in Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home; they all take a fish fillet, slices of various vegetables, sprinklings of various spices/herbs, and a little bit of oil; wrap it up in foil, and cook (book's at home, so I can't give you time/temperature off the top of my head).

I also like to put a salmon fillet in a casserole dish, add sliced whatever-veggies-I-have-on-hand (onion, mushroom, zucchini, tomato, fresh basil, whatever), and cook that at 450F for about 20 minutes or so (covered if I'm running light on veggies; uncovered if the salmon's buried in them).
