Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 6 ounces each) Salmon or trout fillets, skinless
- 2 cups Cherry tomatoes
- 1 whole Lemon, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 0.5 cup White wine (dry)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Dill, chopped (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large oven-safe baking dish, spread the cherry tomatoes evenly across the bottom.
Add the minced garlic and drizzle the olive oil over the tomatoes. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper and toss gently to coat.
Arrange the salmon or trout fillets on top of the tomatoes. Season the fillets lightly with salt and pepper.
Lay the lemon slices over the fish, overlapping slightly if needed.
Pour the white wine into the baking dish around the fish to create the poaching liquid.
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil to trap the steam during cooking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Carefully remove the foil and garnish with fresh parsley and dill, if using, before serving.
Serve warm with your choice of side dishes, such as rice, quinoa, or roasted vegetables.
