1 medium red bell pepper, stemmed, seeded and thinly sliced

1. In a large, nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. When hot, put onions into pan. Sauté 5 minutes. (Add a tablespoon or two of water to keep from sticking.) Add garlic, ginger, bell pepper and red-pepper flakes; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Stir the sweet-and-sour sauce and water into the vegetables, mixing well. Put fish into pan, spooning some of the sauce over it. Cover pan and cook at a low simmer for about 10 minutes or until the fish flakes.
3. Add lemon juice and green onion if using. (Serve with rice to soak up the juices.)
