Mediterranean Baked Fish – A Fresh, Flavorful Feast

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2: Prepare the Fish
Place the fish fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased with olive oil.
Season both sides of the fish fillets with salt and pepper to taste.
Step 3: Prepare the Mediterranean Topping
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, cherry tomatoes, black olives, capers, red onion, and half of the lemon slices. Mix to combine.
Spoon this mixture evenly over the fish fillets.
Step 4: Bake the Fish
Arrange the remaining lemon slices on top of the fish.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
Once out of the oven, garnish the fish with the remaining chopped parsley, basil, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes (if desired).
If you like, add a few sprigs of fresh dill for a fragrant, finishing touch.
Step 6: Serve
Serve the Mediterranean Baked Fish with a side of roasted vegetables, couscous, or a simple salad for a complete meal.
