Ingredients

Yield: 2 servings

Main

  • 2 (6 oz) white fish fillets (cod, tilapia, or haddock)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup zucchini, chopped
  • 1 cup bell pepper (any color), chopped
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp black pepper
  • Fresh lemon wedges, for serving
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    In a medium bowl, combine cherry tomatoes, zucchini, bell pepper, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until vegetables are evenly coated.

  3. Step 3

    Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on one side of the prepared baking sheet.

  4. Step 4

    Place the fish fillets on the other side of the baking sheet. Drizzle fish with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender-crisp. Cooking times may vary based on fish thickness.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges and a sprinkle of fresh parsley, if desired.

Tips

  • Use any quick-cooking vegetables you like, such as asparagus, green beans, or thin-sliced onions.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan; use two sheets if necessary to ensure everything roasts evenly.
  • For a slightly spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vegetables.
