Braised Fish with Orange & Soy

This recipe really intrigued me because I would never think to put all these ingredients together.  I figured I'd try it, if it turned out bad that wouldn't be the worst thing.  This recipe made me a believer though.  It was really jam packed with flavor and very filling.  Plus it's good for you!  
You'll need two cloves of garlic minced, one tablespoon of fresh ginger, and a bunch of scallions thinly sliced.
In a small bowl combine orange juice concentrate, soy sauce and 1/4 cup of water.
Once combined it will look like this.
In a large skillet, over medium heat, add garlic, ginger and scallions.  Cook until scallions begin to soften.
Add soy mixture to the skillet and bring to a simmer.
Add fish, cover, and cook until opaque throughout, around 7 minutes.  Serve over brown rice.
So tasty!  I used cod for the fish, but you can use whatever you like.  I also served with some cooked zucchini.  I love when the underdog turns out to be just awesome.  

Happy Monday everyone!
