  loosely and cook for 5 minutes on High.  Remove the fish and onions
  from the casserole and keep them warm. Melt 1T butter in small, deep
  bowl for 30 seconds on High. Stir in the flour and cook for 1-2

  cooking liquid from the fish, and add the tomato paste and thyme.
  Cook for 2-3 minutes on High, stirring occasionally until thickened.
  Add the parsley, lemon juice, salt and pepper, and set aside with the
  fish. Melt the remaining butter in a small casserole on High for 30
  seconds.  Put in the spinach, cover loosely and cook for 1-2 minutes

  fish and sauce to re-heat for 30 seconds on High. Arrange the fish
  and onions on top of the bed of spinach and pour the sauce over to
