Ingredients
- 4 (6-ounce) white fish fillets (such as cod, snapper, or sea bass)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh oregano
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional: Cherry tomatoes, Kalamata olives, red onion slices for added flavor and color
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
- Place the fish fillets in the prepared baking dish. Season with salt and pepper.
- Scatter minced garlic, parsley, oregano, cherry tomatoes (if using), Kalamata olives (if using), and red onion slices (if using) around the fish.
- Arrange lemon slices over the fish fillets. Drizzle with remaining olive oil and chicken broth.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Baking time will depend on the thickness of the fillets.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra fresh herbs and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the fish in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs for 30 minutes before baking. You can substitute other white fish fillets, such as halibut or tilapia. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Serve with a side of quinoa, couscous, or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
