Great taste, a winner for Carole. My husband (not a fish lover) said it was very good and to keep the recipe. I did not have zucchini on hand, so I just sauteed some onions with the garlic, and it worked fine. We served it with whole grain, low fat pasta primavera. Terrific, healthy meal.

This is a GREAT recipe. I served it over a bed of white rice and it was smashing!

Excellant fish recipe, very tasty! I used halibut steaks, the topping was delicious, we loved the combination of capers, black olives, tomatoes, garlic and sweet pepper. I had to use celery for under the fish as I had no zucchini , it worked fine. The parmesan cheese on top was the perfect finish! Just made half a recipe for the two of us, we enjoyed it very much and i will make it again. Thanks for posting.

I really enjoyed this recipe. Not only is it delicious, but it is also so easy and simple to prepare. I followed Trixie Girl's and SharonB's ideas to add mushrooms and onions to the vegetables. I also included 1/2 of a red bell pepper. I did not use the lemon juice as I included juice from the capers in the sauce. I forgot to add the garlic but even so it was great. Thanks everyone for such a wonderful and easy recipe!
