A flavorful Mediterranean baked cod dish featuring vibrant vegetables and aromatic herbs.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pieces Cod fillets (46 ounces each)
  • 1 Bell pepper (sliced, orange or red)
  • 1 cup Zucchini (sliced)
  • 1/2 Fennel bulb (thinly sliced)
  • 1/2 cup Cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 1/2 cup Olives
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil (divided)
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic (minced)
  • 1 Lemon (sliced, for garnish)
  • Sea salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
  • Fresh basil, thyme, and parsley (optional, to garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season them with salt, pepper, and half of the olive oil on both sides.
  2. Combine the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, fennel, cherry tomatoes, and olives in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle the remaining olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the top, adding minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss until everything is well-coated.
  3. Spread the vegetable mixture evenly in a baking dish. Nestle the seasoned cod fillets on top of the vegetables.
  4. Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and let it cook for about 20-25 minutes.
  5. Once baked, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh lemon slices and herbs.
  6. Serve warm, either on its own or over a bed of fluffy couscous or quinoa.
