Ingredients

• 4 fillets white fish fillets (cod, halibut, or sea bass)
• 2 medium-sized zucchini
• 250 grams cherry tomatoes
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 medium red onion
• 3 garlic cloves
• 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Rinse and pat dry the fish fillets. Set them aside.

Step 3

Wash and prepare the vegetables: slice the zucchini into thin rounds, halve the cherry tomatoes, cut the bell pepper into strips, and slice the red onion into thin wedges.

Step 4

Mince the garlic cloves and chop the fresh parsley.

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, combine the zucchini, cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, and minced garlic. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, then sprinkle with the dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 6

Arrange the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 7

Place the fish fillets on top of the vegetables. Drizzle the fillets with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the lemon juice. Lightly season with an additional pinch of salt and black pepper if desired.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

Step 9

Remove the tray from the oven and let it rest for 3-5 minutes.

Step 10

Garnish the fish and vegetables with the chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Step 11

Serve hot and enjoy your Italian-style fish and vegetables!
