Ingredients

• 4 pieces white fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or halibut)
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 0.5 cup fresh orange juice
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish large enough to hold the fish fillets in a single layer.

Step 2

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and place them in the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, orange juice, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, salt, black pepper, and paprika to make the marinade.

Step 4

Pour the marinade evenly over the fish fillets, making sure each piece is well-coated. Let the fish marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature.

Step 5

Sprinkle the orange zest and lemon zest over the top of the fish fillets for extra citrus flavor.

Step 6

Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake the fish for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 7

Remove the fish from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 8

Serve the Sunshine Fish with steamed vegetables, rice, or a fresh green salad to complete the meal.
