Serves: 2
Hands-on time: 8 minutes
Total time: 22 minutes
CATEGORY:
Under 45 Minutes, Gluten Free

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 5-oz basa fillets
  • 5 grape tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh Italian-leaf parsley
  • Juice 1/2 lemon
  • 2 large shallots, diced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place fillets and tomatoes in a glass baking dish. Sprinkle garlic and parsley over top and finish with lemon juice. Cover with foil and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  3. To serve, place 3/4 cup spinach-feta mixture on each plate and lay 1 fillet over top, finishing with half of tomatoes.
