This oven baked fish with tomatoes and herbs is such an easy and flavorful recipe that can be made with salmon, cod or red snapper.
We eat a lot of fish! Mostly because I love how quick and easy it is! This particular baked fish recipes is great because it’s made in one-pan and has a ton of flavor without any added fat or salt. The lime juice, garlic, spices and fresh tomato added a light, summery seasoning to the fish – perfect for a simple weeknight dinner.
Ingredients Needed
- fresh, firm fish fillets – you can use salmon, red snapper or cod
- lime
- vegetables – garlic, onion and tomato.
- herbs and spices– rosemary, thyme, parsley and paprika.
What to Serve With Baked Fish
You really can’t go wrong with any sort of vegetable or grain as a side with this baked fish recipe. The herby, tomato topping with fresh lime juice does have a Caribbean vibe going on which makes me want to serve this dish with rice (maybe even coconut rice) and black beans. It would also be tasty with roasted zucchini and squash or roasted sweet potatoes.

Hello,
I am looking forward to trying this recipe.
The recipe states onion as ingredient – when I look at your photo of the fish it looks like red onion used maybe?
Just wondering as this is more of a sweet taste than regular onion and I want to get the taste right!
Thanks
Hi Cyni! Yes, you’ll want to use a red onion for this recipe. Can’t wait to hear how this recipe turns out for you, enjoy!
This is a fantastic marinade that really brings out the flavors of the salmon! I do not use the tinfoil method as that tends to take too much time. Instead, I put the salmon in a glass dish, pour this fabulous marinade over the top and broil it. I’ve found that about 5-7 minutes on either side gets it done.
Woo! So glad this recipe worked out for you, Vivian. Thanks for sharing your cooking method and coming back to leave a review! I really appreciate it!
This was delicious, thanks so much for posting it! I chopped up some extra garlic and tomatoes, sauteed them with some basil and olive oil and tossed them with some pasta as a side dish. My friends were completely impressed! I also made your Chocolate Chunk Pumpkin Bars for dessert and they were a huge hit!
Also, I’ve noticed you talking about using baking stones in a few of your posts. I’ve never used them before, can you tell us a little more about what they are used for?
Thanks!
Sure. They are from Pampered Chef and I use them for everything! http://www.pamperedchef.com/our_products/catalog/product.jsp?productId=174&categoryCode=FH

Mmmmm baked salmon. I’ve been having too much white fish these days — must change that. This looks great!
I will only cook fish outside on the grill. I’d love to cook it inside, but how do you get rid of the fish smell in your house?
Looks SO good! Thanks for sharing!
Yum this looks delicious!!! Im not a huge seafood fan, but I do love salmon. I’ll have to try this one out!
What a fabulous recipe looks delicious.
I LOVE salmon personally and this sounds like a great way to make it. I love the addition of lime to this
