Mushroom, Cheese and Haddock Bake

This was the first new fish recipe we tried in recent months (found on www.allrecipes.com). You wouldn't think that mushrooms would go with fish very well (or at least I wouldn't think they would) but they really did, and this is a great recipe if you are looking for something new to do with your haddock!

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 bunch green onions, chopped
• 1 (6 ounce) package button mushrooms, chopped
• 2 pounds haddock fillets
• salt and pepper to taste
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1/8 teaspoon dried red chile peppers
• 3 tablespoons butter
• 1/8 teaspoon dried parsley (oregano also works)
• 3/4 cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese (I used old cheddar)
• 1 lemon - cut into wedges, for garnish (optional)
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. 
• Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then add green onions and mushrooms; cook and stir until tender, about 5 minutes. Season haddock with salt, pepper, garlic powder and dried chile pepper and place in the baking dish. Top with green onion and mushroom mixture, then dot with butter. Sprinkle parsley on top.
• Cover with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove foil and top haddock with cheese and return baking dish to the oven. Continue baking until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes.
