Ingredients

  • 4 cod fillets
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup pitted olives (Kalamata or black olives)
  • 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 lemon, sliced into rounds
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

  2. Prepare the Cod:

    • Place the cod fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Season both sides of the cod fillets with salt and pepper.

  3. Assemble the Vegetables:

    • Scatter the cherry tomatoes, olives, and sliced red onion around the cod fillets on the baking sheet.

  4. Drizzle with Olive Oil:

    • Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the cod fillets and vegetables.

  5. Add Lemon Slices:

    • Place lemon slices on top of each cod fillet and scatter a few extra slices among the vegetables.

  6. Bake:

    • Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

  7. Garnish and Serve:

    • Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, before serving.

  8. Serve:

    • Serve the Sheet Pan Mediterranean Cod hot, with a side of couscous or quinoa, if desired.

Tips

  • Variety of olives: Feel free to use your favorite variety of olives, such as Kalamata or black olives, for added flavor.
  • Customize with herbs: Add a sprinkle of dried oregano, thyme, or basil over the cod and vegetables before baking for extra Mediterranean flavor.
  • Make it spicy: If you like a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vegetables before baking.

Enjoy your delightful Sheet Pan Mediterranean Cod meal! 🐟🍅🫒✨
