Prepare the rice: Purée stock and tomatoes in a blender until smooth; set aside. Heat oil in a 4-qt. saucepan over medium-high. Cook garlic and onion until soft, about 5 minutes. Add rice; cook until golden, about 6 minutes. Stir in reserved tomato mixture, salt, and pepper; boil. Reduce heat to low; cook, covered, until rice is tender, 25–30 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes.

 

Prepare the fish: Stir white fish, Worcestershire, garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; let sit 10 minutes. Wipe skillet clean; heat oil over medium-high. Working in batches, cook fish until cooked through, 2–3 minutes.
