👩🍳 Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a large bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, pitted Kalamata olives, thinly sliced red onion, minced garlic, chopped fresh oregano, and half of the chopped fresh parsley. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and toss to combine.
3
Spread the seasoned vegetable mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
4
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and season generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Place the seasoned fish fillets on top of the vegetable mixture on the baking sheet.
5
Drizzle the remaining 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil over the fish. Arrange lemon slices on top of and around the fish fillets.
6
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the fish.
7
Once baked, remove from the oven. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the entire dish. Garnish with the remaining fresh parsley and crumbled feta cheese, if using. Serve immediately.
💡 Notes
For best results, use fresh, good quality fish. This dish is versatile; feel free to add other quick-cooking vegetables like bell peppers or zucchini. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days and gently reheated in the oven.
