Ingredients
- 1 pound Yukon Gold or red potatoes cubed
- 1 pound mushrooms (shiitake, cremini, oyster or other fresh mushrooms), trimmed and sliced
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil divided
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
- 2 cloves garlic peeled and sliced
- 14 ounces halibut grouper or cod fillet, cut into 4 portions
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
- Fresh thyme for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Toss potatoes, mushrooms, 1 Tbsp. oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Transfer to a 9×13-inch baking dish. Roast until the vegetables are just tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Stir the vegetables, then stir in garlic. Place fish on top. Drizzle with lemon juice and the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil. Sprinkle with herbes de Provence. Bake until the fish is opaque in the center and flakes easily, 10 to 15 minutes. Garnish with thyme, if desired.
