Haddock is a wonderful, quick, and easy weeknight Mediterranean Diet recipe. If haddock is hard to find, you can substitute cod or halibut.
Ingredients
-
4 haddock fillets, (4 to 6 ounces each)
-
Kosher salt
-
Black pepper
-
8 baby bell peppers, any color, sliced into thin rounds
-
4 green onions, both white and green parts, trimmed and chopped
-
2 large garlic cloves, minced
-
1 1/2 teaspoons Greek oregano
-
1 teaspoon paprika
-
1 lemon, zest and juice
-
Extra virgin olive oil
-
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley, plus more for serving
-
Lemon wedges for serving
Directions
Get ready. Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat the oven to 400°F.
Prep the haddock. Pat the fish dry on both sides and season well with kosher salt and black pepper then place it in a large mixing bowl.
Season the haddock and vegetables. To the bowl with the fish, add the baby bell peppers, green onions, garlic and parsley. Season with the oregano, paprika, and a little more salt and pepper. Add the lemon juice, lemon zest and about 1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil. Toss well to combine, making sure the fish and vegetables are fully coated with the seasoning.
Bake the haddock and vegetables. Transfer the fish and vegetables to a 9 x 13 baking dish. Bake in the heated oven until the fish is opaque and flakes easily at the touch of a fork, about 15 minutes.
Finish and serve. Garnish with more chopped parsley, and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges on the side.
Recipe Note
- How to Store Baked Haddock: Baked haddock is best eaten immediately, but leftovers will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Use leftover haddock chilled in a salad or as a topping for toasts. If you must, you can reheat the fish and vegetables covered, with a little water in the pan, in a 350°F oven just until warmed through.
