Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces catfish fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 0.5 cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
- 0.5 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 0.5 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 pieces lemon wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Pat the catfish fillets dry with paper towels and place them in the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the olive oil mixture evenly over the catfish fillets, ensuring they are well-coated with the marinade.
Scatter the cherry tomatoes, kalamata olives, and red onion slices around and on top of the fillets.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the vegetables.
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the catfish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle crumbled feta cheese and freshly chopped parsley over the top.
Serve the Greek Catfish hot, garnished with lemon wedges. Pair it with a side of rice, roasted potatoes, or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
