4 (4-ounce) fresh or frozen cod or other fish fillets
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 medium onion, sliced and separated into rings
2-1/4 teaspoons snipped fresh oregano OR marjoram or 3/4 teaspoon dried oregano OR marjoram, crushed
1/2 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Recipe
1. Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Measure thickness of fish. Set aside.
2. In a large skillet combine broth, onion, oregano or marjoram, lemon peel, lemon juice, and garlic. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered, about 3 minutes or until onion is tender. Arrange fish fillets in onion mixture. Add sweet peppers.
3. Cook, covered, over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes for each 1/2-inch thickness of fish or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Using a slotted spoon, remove fish and vegetable mixture to a serving platter. Keep warm.
4. Combine cold water and cornstarch. Add to pan juices. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Spoon over fish and vegetables. If desired, garnish with lemon.
