Mediterranean Baked Fish Recipe with Tomatoes and Capers

Private Reserve Greek extra virgin olive oil

red onion, finely chopped

tomatoes,

garlic cloves, chopped

tsp organic ground coriander

tsp all-natural sweet Spanish paprika

1 tsp organic ground cumin

cayenne pepper (optional)

capers

Salt and pepper

golden raisins

fish

lemon

parsley

Prepare the tomato and capers sauce. In a medium saucepan, heat extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking. Add onions, cook for 3 minutes until it begins to turn gold in color, tossing regularly. Add tomatoes, garlic, spices, pinch of salt (not too much) and pepper, capers, and raisins. Bring to a boil, then turn heat down to medium-low and let simmer for 15 minutes or so.

Pat fish dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.

Pour 1/2 of the cooked tomato sauce into the bottom of a 9 1/2" x 13" baking dish. Arrange the fish on top. Add lemon juice and lemon zest, then top with the remaining tomato sauce.

Bake in 400 degrees F heated-oven  for 15 to 18 minutes or until fish is cooked through and flakes easily (do not over-cook). Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley or mint to your liking.

Serve hot with Mediterranean grilled zucchini, Greek potatoes, or Lebanese rice. (See other suggestions for sides or salads up in the post)

Thumbs up! We ate up all the fish, but the sauce was so good, my husband saved it to eat over rice for lunch the next day.  This one's going on the regular menu rotation!

Hi Suzy! We made this for our Good Friday fish dinner. Added extra tomatoes, capers and raisins because sometimes, more is more! So delicious and can’t wait for the leftovers tomorrow. Thank you :)

Great recipe. I didn’t have enough white fish so added some baby squid which I sliced up, I omitted the raisins and sprinkled the top with crumbled feta, will definitely be making this again.

Made this along with the mediterranean zucchini and rice. Substituted craisins for raisins and dill and parsley for coriander but the result was  Fantastic and delicious!   Definitely a keeper.

Amazing recipe! I made it once and I loved the flavour. I used a whole fish but will make it again with cod pieces. I followed the recipe exactly but omitted the raisins. This is a keeper!

Just cleaned up after making this easy and flavorful dish.  This is a keeper for sure!  We used flounder, as that's what looked best at the fish shoppe.  I must say that the golden raisins made this dish (and I don't even like raisins!). They added a nice sweet balance to the acidity from the tomatoes/lemon juice and saltiness of the capers.  We paired it with simple Israeli cous cous and a green salad.  Delicious and healthy -- a perfect combination.  My husband (a midwestern meat and potatoes guy of few words) called the dish "remarkable" and thinks it would be a great to make when guests visit. Thanks so much for another great recipe!

Thank you for such a wonderful quick recipe. I made roasted zucchini and roasted broccoli for our sides and served it with a simple salad with olive oil and lemon for the dressing. Tomatoes, carrots, kalamata olives, and cucumber to keep with the Mediterranean theme. This dish makes we want to make Mediterranean food regularly. The raisins plump up beautifully. I changed nothing.

Bravo, great recipe, definitely a keeper. I used petrale sole. Because the filets are so thin, I lowered the temperature to 375. If you use thin filets like this, you may not be able to get 1.5 lbs into a 9x13 baking dish.

I wanted to try something different today as I had some white fish in the freezer to finish.  This was outstanding.  My wife was skeptical when I told her what I was cooking as she feels I can sometimes get too adventurous with flavours.  She thoroughly enjoyed it, though unfortunately, I had to omit the raisins.  There are just some things I can't get my wife to eat, but a resounding success, thank you.

Delicious! I made a similar one in the past, minus these spices. Their addition brings up everything to a new level, definitely a keeper.

This is the best food I've had in a long time! I lost some sense of taste due to medical treatments and this found the taste receptors in a big way! Delicious!
