Ingredients

  • 4 pieces white fish fillets (e.g., cod or halibut)
  • 2 whole lemon
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium-sized zucchini
  • 1 large red bell pepper
  • 2 medium-sized carrots, sliced thinly
  • 1 bunch asparagus spears
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Set aside.

Step 3

Slice one lemon into thin rounds. Juice the second lemon and keep the juice ready.

Step 4

Wash and prepare the vegetables: slice zucchini into half-moons, julienne the red bell pepper, thinly slice the carrots, and trim the woody ends off the asparagus spears.

Step 5

In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together well to create the marinade.

Step 6

Place the fish fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle half the marinade over the fish and arrange the lemon slices on top of the fillets.

Step 7

In a large bowl, toss the prepared vegetables with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and the other half of the marinade.

Step 8

Arrange the vegetables around the fish fillets on the baking sheet, ensuring everything is in a single layer for even cooking.

Step 9

Dot the vegetables with small pieces of butter for added flavor.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are tender.

Step 11

Remove from the oven and sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the fish and vegetables before serving.

Step 12

Serve warm and enjoy your Lemon Infused Fish and Vegetables!
