Ingredients:

3 potatoes
600g
2 tbsp lemon zest
30g
2 tbsp rosemary
30g
3/4 cup olive oil
180g
2 garlic cloves
6g
1 cup fresh parsley
60g
1 cup basil leaves
7g
2 tbsp capers
30g
1.50 lb white fish
680g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Potatoes:
- In a large bowl, combine the potato wedges, 1 tbsp of the lemon zest, the chopped rosemary, and 1/4 cup (60g) of the olive oil.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Toss until the potato wedges are evenly coated.
3. Roast the Potatoes:
- Spread the potato wedges in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, turning them halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
4. Prepare the Fish:
- While the potatoes are roasting, lightly oil another baking dish or sheet.
- Place the white fish fillets in the dish and drizzle with 2 tbsp (30g) of olive oil.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Bake in the same oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
5. Make the Salsa Verde:
- In a food processor, combine the fresh parsley, basil leaves, capers, minced garlic, the remaining 1 tbsp of lemon zest, and the remaining 1/2 cup (90g) of olive oil.
- Pulse until finely chopped but still retaining some texture. You can also season with salt and pepper to taste if needed.
6. Assemble and Serve:
- Once the potatoes and fish are done, plate the fish fillets and spoon the salsa verde generously over the top.
- Serve the crispy rosemary potatoes on the side.
7. Enjoy:
- This dish pairs beautifully with a fresh green salad or a light white wine. Enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!

Tips:

- Choose a firm white fish such as cod, halibut, or snapper to ensure it holds up well during baking.

- To infuse more flavor into the potatoes, lightly crush the garlic cloves before adding them.

- Use fresh herbs for the salsa verde for a more vibrant and aromatic sauce.

- Ensure the fish is completely dry before baking to achieve a nice crust.

- Serve the dish with a side of steamed vegetables or a light salad for a complete meal.

By carefully following these steps and tips, you can create a perfectly balanced meal of baked fish with salsa verde and rosemary potatoes. The combination of tender fish, herbaceous potatoes, and zesty salsa verde will delight your taste buds and impress your guests.
