PSARI PLAKI - BAKED FISH



One last Greek dish and then I'll move on to some fall favorites now that it's getting cooler outside.  Greek style baked fish.  I used 1 lb of fish so cut the recipe into thirds.  It  had a good flavor & I'll make it again with a few adjustments.  I'll skip the rings of onion on the top, they just got kind of dry and chewy.  Also I'll not add the water called for, the dish had plenty of liquid and just did not need it.  I'll leave the crumbled crackers off too, they got a little soggy and if I want some crunch on top I'll add some panko crumbs or some nuts.  But I liked the flavor of the fish with the seasonings and the vegetables.
