Recipe Information
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
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them on one side of the baking sheet.
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.
Brush the marinade evenly over the fish fillets.
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.
Arrange the vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet, spreading them out so they roast evenly.
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.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle fresh parsley over the fish and vegetables.
Serve the fish and roasted vegetables warm with an optional side of crusty bread or rice.
