Ingredients

• 4 pieces white fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or haddock)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 4 slices lemon slices (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 4

Drizzle the olive oil and spice mixture evenly over the fish fillets, using a brush or your fingers to coat them well.

Step 5

Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil to keep the fish moist. Place the dish in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6

Remove the fish from the oven and carefully discard the foil. Garnish the fillets with chopped fresh parsley and serve with optional lemon slices on the side.

Step 7

Enjoy your Healthy Low Fat Baked Fish with steamed vegetables, quinoa, or a fresh green salad for a wholesome meal!
