📝 Instructions

13 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

Peel and thinly slice the garlic cloves. Slice the onion, bell peppers, and tomatoes into thin rounds. Cut the baby potatoes into halves or quarters, depending on their size.

3

In a large baking dish, drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil to coat the bottom.

4

Arrange the baby potatoes evenly in the dish. Season them with 1 teaspoon of salt and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper.

5

Lay the onion slices evenly over the potatoes, followed by the slices of red and yellow bell peppers. Arrange the tomato slices on top.

6

Sprinkle the paprika over the vegetable layers for added flavor.

7

Season the fish fillets with the remaining salt and black pepper. Place them on top of the vegetable layers in the dish.

8

Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and pour the white wine over everything in the baking dish.

9

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.

10

Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

11

While the dish is baking, finely chop the fresh parsley and cut the lemon into wedges.

12

Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the fresh parsley over the top.

13

Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.
