Looking for something a little healthier? Well this Italian Baked Fish is the perfect fish dish for you.

I remember the first time I saw the Colosseum. I got chills then as I do every time I go to Rome and lay my eyes it.

Coming from a new country I am always in awe at the history and culture of such an amazing city as Rome.

A few of years ago when my eldest daughter had an exam to write at the University,  she asked if I would like to go along. How could I refuse?

A day in Rome, I don’t have to cook lunch, so eat pizza I did, thank you very much.

And dessert? Yes please, gelato, it was creamy and amazing, my two favourite flavours stracciatella (chocolate chip) and chocolate.

I remember that day like it was yesterday. I remember since I had a couple of hours to waste I took a little stroll.

I stopped for an espresso in a quaint little coffee bar,  ahhh the good life!

So after a day of self indulging, which I highly recommend, I thought I should make a healthy, good for you but really tasty Baked Fish Dish.

Ingredients

  • 4 fish fillet (I used flounder, frozen fish can be used, de-frost and towel dry before baking)
  • 10-14 small roma tomatoes (seeded and cut into small pieces
  • 3/4 teaspoon oregano
  • 3/4 teaspoon basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • dash hot pepper flakes if desired
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley 7 grams
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil for drizzling
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven to 350° (180° celsius)
  • In a medium bowl add, cut up seeded tomatoes, oregano, basil, salt, hot pepper flakes, Italian parsley and 2 1/2 tablespoons (37 grams) olive oil. Mix gently to combine.
  • Line a medium to large baking pan with a large enough piece of parchment paper (large enough to fold over the fish), line fish fillet (they can be touching) top fish with tomato mixture, drizzle with 1 tablespoon (15 grams) olive oil and fold the parchment paper to cover the fish.

        Hi April, that’s what vacations are for, over-indulging! You will have to see Rome one day. Have a great Sunday.

      Isn’t it great that I can make your recipe with the fresh flounder my Honey is going to catch soon. At least we hope once the weather warms up. I am pinning the recipe! Love fish recipes because we eat a lot of it. I felt the same way when I saw the Colosseum — photos just aren’t the same. Buona sera!

      I agree…sometimes you have to give yourself a break. The closest I ever came to the Colosseum was driving by on a tour bus 🙁 I’ve spent most of my life wanting to go to Italy and when I finally did, it was to accompany my daughter and her chorus group…that meant lots of rigid schedules as they were performing during the trip…so 8 days and lots of cities and rush, rush, rush! If I ever go again, it will be on my terms- no tours, lol! (I’m in Rome in my gravatar)

      By the way, I did eat pizza and gelato every chance I could get- my favorite: Nocciola!

      This recipe looks so light and delicious…can I puree the tomatoes though? I have issues with tomatoes, lol!

        For sure you have to see Rome on your terms, it is a must see city. I guess you could try to puree the tomatoes, let me know how it goes. Have a great Sunday.
