Fish Fillet in Creamy White Sauce with Basil Rice

I've always cooked fish fillet in dark sauce, meaning mostly soy sauce or oyster sauce. But I wanted to try cooking fillet in creamy white sauce for a change. I got the idea from a menu favorite of mine at one of the Chinese restaurants I frequent -- lobster or shrimp in creamy white sauce.

But of course, this dish won't be complete without steamed rice. Recently, I've been experimenting with different ways to cook steamed rice, adding tomato paste or coconut milk. This time, I tried cooking the rice in creamy basil sauce which I picked up from Whole Foods. Cooking basil rice would be no different than cooking regular steamed rice, except that I added two tablespoons of the basil sauce to the water I used to steam the rice. It really goes well with my fish fillet!
