• Season: Drizzle the olive oil all over the ingredients in the dish. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning and season with salt and pepper.
• Finish and bake: Pour the water into the dish. Scatter the butter evenly over the dish. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the tomatoes and fish are cooked.

MEDITERRANEAN BAKED WHITE FISH

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the fish dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Brush a 9 ½ x 13-inch baking dish with a little extra virgin olive oil and put the fish in it. Squeeze ½ lemon juice all over the top of the fish.
• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, olives, onions, garlic and spices. Add a very small pinch of salt and ground pepper. Add a generous drizzle (about 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil) toss to combine.
• Pour the tomato and olive mixture over the fish.
• Bake in the heated oven for 15 to 20 minutes (this will depend on the thickness of your fish).
• Remove from the heat and serve.

BAKED FISH WITH TOMATO-OLIVE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cilantro stems and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the rice and stir to coat. Add 1 1/2 cups water, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
• Meanwhile, pour the tomatoes into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and roughly crush them with your hands. Mix in the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, chopped cilantro, olives, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Chop 1 pickled jalapeño and stir it into the sauce. Season the fish with salt, pepper and the chili powder. Place skin-side down in the dish and spoon some of the sauce on top.
• Bake until the fish is cooked through and the sauce is bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes. Divide the rice and fish among plates. Serve with lime wedges and the remaining pickled jalapeños and carrots.
