Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces white fish fillets (e.g., cod, haddock, or sea bass)
- 4 large ripe tomatoes
- 1 medium onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, chopped
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.25 cup dry white wine
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Set them aside.
Grate the tomatoes using a box grater or food processor, discarding the skins. Place the grated tomatoes in a bowl.
Finely chop the onion and garlic.
In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the grated tomatoes, parsley, oregano, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.
In a baking dish large enough to hold the fish pieces in a single layer, spread half of the tomato mixture evenly on the bottom.
Arrange the fish fillets on top of the tomato layer. Drizzle the fillets with the lemon juice and the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Pour the white wine over the fish, and then evenly spread the remaining tomato mixture over the top of the fillets.
Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly over the tomato-topped fish to create a crust.
Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the breadcrumbs are golden and crisp.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Psari a La Spetsiota with fresh crusty bread or alongside a green salad for a complete meal.
