Making Roasted Fish with Cherry Tomatoes is easy when following these steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray for easy cleanup.
3. Arrange the Tomatoes: Spread the halved cherry tomatoes on one side of the prepared baking sheet.
4. Season the Tomatoes: Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the tomatoes. Sprinkle with minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Toss gently to coat.
5. Add the Fish: Place the fish fillets on the other side of the baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
6. Bake: Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
7. Garnish: Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves for added flavor.
8. Serve: Transfer the fish and tomatoes to a serving platter. Serve with lemon wedges for a refreshing kick.
