Serves 4
Four 6 oz pieces of Halibut, skin removed (you can easily sub in any thick fish filet of choice)
2 cups of cherry tomatoes, halved
1 large shallot, skin removed and thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, peeled
2 teaspoons Italian Seasoning, divided
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Fresh ground pepper
1 lemon, zested and thinly sliced
4 oz pitted green olives (about 20 olives- we love using castelvetrano olives)
Olive oil
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Slice the garlic clove in half. Rub the inside of a baking dish with the cut side of the garlic. Chop up remaining garlic. Place tomatoes, shallot, remaining garlic, 1 1/2 teaspoons Italian seasoning, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, a few grinds of fresh black pepper, lemon zest and 1 Tablespoon of olive oil in the dish and toss.
Pat fish dry with a paper towel. Season fish with kosher salt, fresh black pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of Italian seasoning. Place fish on top of tomato mixture. Top each piece of fish with 1 lemon slice. Sprinkle olives around the fish. Drizzle a little more olive oil over the top of the dish.
Bake for 20 minutes. Serve with couscous or rice and freshly steamed green beans. #habitualhostess #feedfeed #f52grams#easydinner #healthydinner #fish #bakedfish #pescatarian
