by Melanie on September 29, 2008

We had this for dinner tonight and it was GREAT! Very simple, healthy and delicious! The picture is not the best, I was in a hurry to eat! It really was so good–give it a try! It is a great way to use all that beautiful, plentiful summer garden bounty!

Fish with Summer Squash
submitted by Melanie
1/2 large red onion, chopped
2-3 Tablespoons extra virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp lemon zest
1 cup chunked zuchini
1 cup chunked yellow squash
1-2 garlic cloves-chopped or pressed
2 tilapia fillets (or other white mild fish)
salt and pepper to taste (I used Johnny’s seasoning salt)
cherry tomatoes–to garnish–optional
1. Preheat oven to 400. Place onion, lemon zest and olive oil in a oven safe baking dish(I used stoneware). Toss and spread evenly. Roast, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes or until onion is tender. Remove the baking dish from the oven. Stir in the zuchini, squash, and garlic. Roast for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven.
2. Push the vegtables to one side. Add the fish, arranging evenly on bottom. Spoon vegetables on top. Roast unitl fish flakes easily with a fork (8-10 minutes for thin fillets, 12-15 for thicker ones)
3. When done, sprinkle with seasoning and some chopped cherry tomatoes. enjoy!

This looks so yummy and refreshing. Should there be garlic in the list of ingredients? Because it’s mentioned in the directions. And I can’t tell from the picture – did you serve it with tomatoes too?
