Indulge in this heart healthy fish recipe with fresh Greek salsa.

Serves 4.

Ingredients:

Fish

  • 4 red snapper or tilapia fillets (about 4 ounces each), rinsed and patted dry
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Salsa

  • 3/4 cup finely chopped cucumber
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint or fresh parsley
  • 2 tablespoons capers, drained
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Method:

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan with cooking spray.

Arrange the fish in a single layer in the pan. Spoon 2 tablespoons lemon juice over the fish. Sprinkle with the oregano, paprika, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.

Bake for 10 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Using a slotted spatula, transfer the fish to plates. Discard any liquid remaining in the pan.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir together the salsa ingredients. Spoon over the cooked fish.
