Mediterranean Baked Fish
SUBMITTED BY:
Ellen De Munnik
"'The mouth-watering aroma of this herbed fish dish baking is sure to lure guests to your kitchen' predicts Ellen De Munnik. 'It makes a lovely and colorful presentation for company,' she adds from Chesterfield, Michigan. 'In a pinch, you can use dried herbs and canned diced tomatoes to replace the fresh ingredients.'"

This is one of my all-time favorite recipes. I've made this dish 5 or 6 times and it's always a hit. I never could get orange roughy but have substituted lemon sole, cod, or tilapia (the best), also using extra leeks, basil leaves , some calamata olives mixed with plain black ones, and drizzling extra olive oil over the top. The best part is preparing most of it ahead. It cooks by itself while I enjoy appetizers with my guests! I am grateful to the person who submitted this recipe.

This recipe was good, but the fish counter at my grocery store didn't have the fish that was called for so we used Cod. I would NOT recommend using cod--it wasn't very flavorful.

I had to make some changes because: I was cooking king fish ,the store didn't have any leeks, and I didn't feel the olives or the rosemary fit. I used green onions instead and probably not a whole 12 leeaves of basil. AND I think it would have been better if the fish could have actually marinated in the oil,leeks, and garlic. THANKS for sharing! The family liked it:o)

My husband and I made this tonight... it was amazing. We of course added extra leeks and used tilapia and kalamata olives instead of what it said. OH and we also threw some shrimp in there! Lastly we drizzled olive oil on there when it was finished. Incredible. Will defintitely be saving this recipe!! 10 stars.

Never had this type of fish before, but we will be making this dish again. It was very similar texture to sea bass, and the basil, tomatoes and lemon really flavor this dish!

Divine. I used some thicker cuts of tilapia instead of the harder to fine orange roughy, and it was still great. I will keep my eye out for the orange roughy though - it has it's own unique taste and I'm certain will be wonderful in this dish. Oh, and did I add SIMPLE and EASY to clean up?!?!?!?

This is a fantastic dish! I've tried with different types of fish and always turns out delicious. My husband and I love capers which pair well with the other ingredients. Thanks for the recipe!

This is so delicious and so easy to prepare. I made it exactly as instructed although I forgot the rosemary at the end. I wouldn't change a thing. So good.
