That would be 料理. Yes, it can just mean "cooking", but also equates to what we'd call a dish.
材料に手を加えて食べ物をこしらえること。また、その食べ物。

Maybe you already knew that... when I read your post, I thought you were asking what word to use for the other kind of "dish."

It seems that this word refers to the physical object that food is eaten off of, not to be confused with how English refers to a recipe or meal that has been prepared as "a dish."
