My husband said "Thanks for dinner. That was very good!"

I fixed this on the stove, stir-frying the veggies and then pouring in the sauce to heat through. I fried this fish in canola oil in another skillet and fixed the rice according to package directions. I served it as a bed of rice with the fish on top and the veggie sauce poured over it. Very simple and quick!

I live in a condo and cannot have a grill. Can this be cooked in a toaster oven?
