Einfacher mediterraner Ofenfisch

Zutaten

• 4 white fish fillets (about 6 oz each), such as cod, tilapia, or snapper
• 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
• 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons capers, drained (optional)
• 1 lemon, half sliced into rounds and half reserved for finishing
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil across the bottom of a large baking dish.

2. 2

   Pat the fish fillets completely dry with paper towels and lay them in the dish without overlapping.

3. 3

   In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and smoked paprika. Spoon or brush this evenly over each fillet.

4. 4

   Scatter the cherry tomatoes, olives, red onion, garlic slices, and capers over and around the fish. Tuck the lemon rounds in between the fillets.

5. 5

   Bake uncovered for 18 to 22 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when pressed gently with a fork and the tomatoes are soft and slightly collapsed.

6. 6

   Remove from the oven, squeeze the reserved lemon half over everything, scatter fresh parsley on top, and serve directly from the baking dish.
