- 6 leaves fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 teaspoons salt

Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Rinse the sole fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Lightly grease a baking dish with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Place the sole fillets in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
Season the fillets with salt and black pepper.
Thinly slice the garlic cloves and evenly distribute the slices over the fish.

Sprinkle the mozzarella cheese evenly over the fillets and tomatoes.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil on top of the dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the fish is baking, finely slice the fresh basil leaves.
Remove the fish from the oven and garnish with the sliced basil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving.
