Add fish to pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove fish from pan. Add bell peppers and next 3 ingredients (through garlic) to pan; cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add tomato; cook for 2 minutes. Stir in soy sauce; cook 1 minute. Add the fish; cook 1 minute or until thoroughly heated. Remove from heat.

This was an amazing meal. I know a fish recipe is good when my fish hating dh gobbles it down and wants more. I used tilapia (because I dislike catfish) and used a McCormick's Mexican Fiesta marinade (it's a packet of seasonings that you add water & vinegar to) to marinate the tilapia in for about 15 min. Followed the instructions and used the fajita seasonings on the vegetables and a little more on the fish. Wrapped it all up in a jalapeno cilantro tortilla. Topped off with salsa. Served with ff refried beans and some mexican rice. This recipe made a huge amount of food and tasted fantastic. I highly recommend it.
