Ingredients:

1 ½ lb white fish fillet such as cod or halibut, (1 to 1 ½ in thickness)

• ▢Kosher salt and ground black pepper

• ▢Extra virgin olive oil

• ▢Juice of ½ lemon more for later

• ▢8 ounces cherry tomatoes, halved

• ▢3 ounces pitted olives, halved (I used a combination of kalamata olives and green olives)

• ▢3 tablespoons minced red onion

• ▢4 to 5 garlic cloves, minced

• ▢1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

• ▢2 teaspoons dried oregano

Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.

• Pat the fish dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Brush a 9 ½ x 13-inch baking dish with a little extra virgin olive oil and put the fish in it. Squeeze ½ lemon juice all over the top of the fish.

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, olives, onions, garlic and spices. Add a very small pinch of salt and ground pepper. Add a generous drizzle (about 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil) toss to combine.

• Pour the tomato and olive mixture over the fish.

• Bake in the heated oven for 15 to 20 minutes (this will depend on the thickness of your fish).

• Remove from the heat and serve.
