A delightful Mediterranean-inspired baked tilapia recipe, perfect for a healthy and flavorful meal.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture for the fish.
Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Using olive oil prevents sticking and adds flavor.
In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, sliced olives, chopped onion, fresh parsley, basil, thyme, and the juice of half a lemon.
Mix gently to keep the ingredients intact and evenly distributed.
Place the tilapia fillets in the prepared baking dish, skin side down. Season with salt and pepper.
Ensure the fillets are evenly spaced for uniform cooking.
Spoon the tomato mixture over the fish, covering them generously.
Covering the fish completely helps retain moisture and infuse flavor.
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Check the fish at 15 minutes to avoid overcooking.
Garnish with lemon slices and a sprinkle of fresh thyme before serving.
Garnishing adds a fresh and vibrant touch to the dish.
