Baked White Fish with Onion, Peppers, Olives, and Feta

Baked White Fish with Onion, Peppers, Olives, and Feta

I was looking for a recipe for fish and this is how I cooked it after reading several similar things in various magazines and cookbooks. It was fantastic.

2 medium sized halibut filets (Use fish that is thick)
1/2 T olive oil (or less, depending on your pan)
1/4 cup very finely diced red onion
1/3 cup crumbled feta
1/2 cup very finely diced red pepper
1/4 cup very finaly diced green olives

Preheat oven to 400. Spray small glass or ceramic casserole dish with nonstick spray.

Heat olive oil in nonstick frying pan and saute red pepper and
onion about 3 minutes. Add olives and saute about 2 minutes
more. Turn off heat.

Put fish in casserole dish and season with salt and pepper. Spread
a small amount of mayo evenly over the surface of each piece of
fish. Stir feta into red pepper/onion/olive mixture and spread that
over the top of fish.

Bake until fish is opaque and white throughout and topping is
barely starting to brown, about 15 minutes. The mayo and the
topping will keep the fish moist. Serve hot.
