Ingredients

  • 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod or tilapia)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 piece lemon, juiced and zested
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 0.5 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them on one side of the baking sheet.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, paprika, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

Step 4

Brush the marinade evenly over the fish fillets.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes and asparagus with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 6

Arrange the vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet, spreading them out so they roast evenly.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are tender.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle fresh parsley over the fish and vegetables.

Step 9

Serve the fish and roasted vegetables warm with an optional side of crusty bread or rice.
