Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes, zucchini, and red bell pepper with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Fish

    Lay out a large sheet of aluminum foil. Place the branzino in the center. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil and season the inside and outside of the fish with salt and pepper. Stuff the cavity with lemon slices and chopped parsley.

  3. 3

    Combine and Wrap

    Surround the fish with the prepared vegetables. Fold the edges of the aluminum foil to create a sealed packet, ensuring the fish and vegetables are enclosed.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Place the foil packet on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Carefully open the foil packet (watch out for steam) and serve the branzino with the roasted vegetables directly from the foil or on a serving platter.
