Ingredients

4 Catfish fillets (1 pound)
1/4 c. Lemon juice
1/4 tsp. Italian seasoning
 Vegetable cooking spray
1/2 c. Green onions, chopped
1 Medium sweet red pepper, seeded and chopped
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 Small tomato, diced
1/4 tsp. Salt
1/8 tsp. Pepper
1 c. Shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Preparation

1) Rinse the fillets with cold water, and pat dry. Place in a shallow dish. Pour the lemon juice over the fillets; sprinkle with italian seasoning. Cover and refrigerate 1 hour.

2) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat until hot. Add the onions, sweet red pepper, and garlic; saute until the vegetables are tender, approximately 6 minutes. Add the tomato and saute until thoroughly heated. Remove the mixture from the heat.

3) Remove the fillets from the lemon juice; place in a 12x8x2 inch baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Spoon the reserved vegetable mixture evenly over the fillets; sprinkle with cheese. Bake an additional 10 minutes or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork.
