Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Place the fish fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice over the fillets. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced zucchini, yellow bell pepper, julienned carrots, and green beans to the skillet. Stir and cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Stir in the halved cherry tomatoes and season the vegetable mixture with the remaining salt and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.
Spoon the sautéed vegetable mixture evenly over the fish fillets.
Bake the fish and vegetable mixture in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Add Parmesan cheese on top, if desired.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes such as roasted potatoes, rice, or a crisp green salad.
