Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (such as cod, halibut, or tilapia)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 1 cup pitted Kalamata olives
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
Brush the marinade generously over the fish fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and scatter them over and around the fish fillets. Add the Kalamata olives as well.
Sprinkle the dried oregano over the entire dish, followed by the crumbled feta cheese.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top to enhance the flavors.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped parsley.
Serve warm with a side of rice, quinoa, or a Greek salad for a complete meal.
