One Pan Fish & Risoni is a simple, healthy, and flavorful meal that comes together in just one pan. The delicate fish pairs beautifully with the savory risoni pasta, creating a quick and satisfying dinner with minimal cleanup.

 

Ingredients

– 4 fish fillets (such as cod, tilapia, or snapper)

– 1 tablespoon olive oil

– 1 small onion, chopped

– 2 cloves garlic, minced

– 1 cup risoni (or orzo pasta)

– 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth

– 1 teaspoon lemon zest

– 1 tablespoon lemon juice

– 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

– 1/2 teaspoon paprika

– Salt and pepper to taste

– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

– Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

2. Stir in the risoni pasta and cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the pasta to toast slightly.

3. Pour in the chicken broth, lemon zest, lemon juice, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

4. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cover. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the risoni is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.

5. While the risoni is cooking, season the fish fillets with salt and pepper.

6. Make space in the center of the pan and place the fish fillets on top. Cover and cook for another 6-8 minutes, until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

7. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges.

 

Notes

– You can use any mild white fish fillets for this dish, such as tilapia, cod, or snapper.

– Feel free to add vegetables like peas, spinach, or bell peppers for extra flavor and nutrition.

– If you don’t have risoni, orzo or any small pasta will work as a substitute.
