Savoury rice with hake - and another update on hubby

I wanted to use basmati rice as it has low glycemic index and better than white long grain and hubby isn't keen on brown rice, so I did some research and developed the following recipe.
Waitrose Frozen hake fillets are amazing, they are perfect for this dish.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 banana red pepper, finely sliced
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 cup basmati rice
1 chicken stock cube
Water to cover by 1/2 inch
1 cup frozen peas
4 hake frozen fillets
Salt and pepper

Method
Heat oil in a large sauté pan (make sure you have a lid for it).
Add onion, garlic and peppers, gently sauté for 1 minute add tomato and cook until soft.
Add the rice and fry gently mixing for about 1 minute. Add the stock cube and water and bring to the boil. Season. Add the frozen peas, stir, then lay the hake over the top pushing the fillets just under the liquid. Cover and simmer very gently until all the liquid has evaporated. Don't stir, just leave the pan to steam. Carefully serve onto plates, fluffing the rice slightly with a fork.
