A quick, colorful and intensely flavorful fish dish.
Ingredients
1½ lbs. white fish filets of your choice such as cod, flounder, sole, grouper
FOR THE VEGETABLE SALSA
1 small zucchini, diced small
½ red onion, diced small
½ each of a yellow and orange pepper, diced small
a good handful of pitted mixed olives, slightly chopped
a good handful of sliced grape or cherry tomatoes
2 garlic cloves, minced
a handful chopped parsley
olive oil
paprika
lemon wedges
Instructions
Place all your chopped vegetables into a bowl, add the parsley, garlic, everything for the salsa, then drizzle in enough olive oil to make it a loose consistency, salt and pepper to taste.
Place your filets into a glass baking dish that has been drizzled with olive oil.
Salt and pepper the filets and give them a light sprinkle of paprika.
Generously top the filets with the vegetable salsa, covering the fish all over, add in a few lemon wedges.
Place into a 400 degree pre-heated oven for 15-18 minutes.
NOTE: I used flounder which is more delicate and less dense, but if using a thicker fish adjust the time accordingly.
