Ingredients
  

  • 4 fillets White fish (cod, halibut, or snapper) about 6 oz each
  • 1 1/2 cups Cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1/4 cup Kalamata olives pitted and halved
  • 2 tbsp Capers drained
  • 1/2 whole Red onion thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 whole Lemon juiced and zested
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Dried oregano
  • 2 tbsp Fresh dill or parsley chopped
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a small amount of olive oil.
  • Pat the fish fillets completely dry using paper towels. Season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper, then arrange them in the center of the baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, and dried oregano.
  • Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, Kalamata olives, and drained capers around the fish fillets.
  • Drizzle the lemon-herb olive oil mixture evenly over the fish and the surrounding vegetables.
  • Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh chopped dill or parsley, and serve warm with the pan juices spooned over the top.
