Ingredients

  • 1 lb white fish fillets (like cod or tilapia)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup bell peppers, sliced (red and yellow)
  • 1 small red onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Season the fish fillets with salt, pepper, and half of the oregano. Add them to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side until they're golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and bell peppers. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they soften.

  4. 4

    Add the cherry tomatoes and garlic. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes start to burst.

  5. 5

    Stir in the lemon juice and zest along with the remaining oregano. Cook for another minute to blend the flavors.

  6. 6

    Return the fish to the skillet to warm it through briefly, then garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
