Marinade with Lime Juice
2 celery stalks, cut in thin diagonal slices

Remove fish from marinade and place in 9x12x2-inch glass baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap; vent one corner. Microwave on HIGH 3 minutes; rotate once half way through cook time.

In 2-quart glass round baking dish, combine vegetables; cover with plastic wrap; vent one corner. Microwave on HIGH 2 1/2 minutes. Remove from microwave; add 1 tablespoon marinade and blend well.
