Great weeknight fish recipe

We like this recipe pretty much as is, but felt it needed some additional zing so we seasoned the fish with taco rub before cooking. We also served veggies as toppings (roasted corn, roasted zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red peppers, and purple cabbage). We will definitely be making this again!
