- Serves:

1
ingredients
- 1⁄3 lb white fish fillet (cod, halibut, rockfish, snapper, etc)
- 1⁄4 cup chopped onion
- 1⁄4 cup chopped green bell pepper
- 1⁄4 cup chopped zucchini
- 1⁄4 cup chopped yellow squash
- 1 roma tomato, quartered
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
- 1⁄2 lemon
- cajun seasoning, to taste
directions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Rinse and dry your fish, and rub each side with some olive oil. Season each side with cajun seasoning.
- Place fish in the center of a very long piece of foil on a cookie sheet.
- Toss veggies, garlic, pepper flakes, cajun seasoning and remaining olive oil in a bowl until everything is sufficiently coated.
- Spread veggie mixture over fish fillet.
- Squeeze juice of lemon over veggies and fish. I put the rest of the lemon on top of the mixture while it bakes for extra lemon flavor, but you don't have to.
- Fold foil around fish and vegetables so that a packet is formed.
- Bake at 450 for 15 minutes.
- Open foil, place on plate, and dig in!

I would give this 5 stars, but I didn't follow it exactly. I substituted lemon pepper for lemon and cajun seasoning and mushrooms for yellow squash. I also have a fear of over-cooking fish, so I baked it at 425 for 15 minutes and it came out juicy and delicious! This was a fast and easy recipe that I would definitely make again with whatever vegetables I have in the house.

I'm a college student doing my best to eat healthy! I love to cook for my roommates, but between the vegetarian, the perpetual dieter, and the picky eater I have living with me, pasta night is the only thing we can really agree on. I love to go out and party, shop, and just veg out with my girlfriends. I really hate people who talk through movies...just watch, you'll find out what happens!
