Ingredients

¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
3 cups sweet onions sliced
1 cup leeks sliced cross-wise
4-6 garlic cloves minced
2 14.5 ounce cans diced tomatoes drained
1 teaspoon kosher salt
freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons dried Greek oregano
2 pounds wild cod or haddock fillets
2 tablespoons fresh parsley finely chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Preheat a wide saute pan over medium-high heat. Add in the olive oil.
Add the onions and leeks and saute until soft, about five minutes.
Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about one minute.
Add the tomatoes, salt, pepper, and Greek oregano and cook for an additional five minutes. Remove from heat.
If using an oven-safe pan, tuck the fish in between and underneath the tomato and onion mixture. Alternately, place fish in a baking pan and top with the tomato and onion mixture.
Bake in the oven for 40-50 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Top with the chopped parsley. Serve with feta and crusty bread.

Notes

*I normally use two 1-pound slabs of fish, but if you have one large slab, cut the fish in half before placing in the baking pan.
