Jamie Oliver Fish Casserole Recipe

Jamie Oliver Fish Casserole

A fish casserole is a one-dish meal featuring chunks of white fish, colorful vegetables, and a savory sauce. Jamie Oliver’s version adds Mediterranean-inspired flavors with garlic, herbs, and olive oil, creating a comforting and wholesome dish.

Ingredients

  • White fish fillets: 500g (such as cod, haddock, or tilapia), cut into chunks.
  • Olive oil: 2 tablespoons.
  • Garlic: 3 cloves, minced.
  • Onion: 1 large, finely chopped.
  • Bell peppers: 2, sliced (use red, yellow, or green).
  • Cherry tomatoes: 250g, halved.
  • Tomato passata: 400ml.
  • Black olives: 50g, pitted and halved.
  • Fresh parsley: A handful, chopped.
  • Dried oregano: 1 teaspoon.
  • Salt and pepper: To taste.
  • Lemon wedges: For serving.

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the base

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or casserole dish over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, cooking until softened and fragrant.

Step 2: Add the vegetables

Stir in the sliced bell peppers and cherry tomatoes. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Step 3: Create the sauce

Pour in the tomato passata and add the dried oregano, olives, salt, and pepper. Simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Step 4: Add the fish

Gently place the fish chunks into the sauce, ensuring they are partially submerged. Cover the dish with a lid and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.

Step 5: Garnish and serve

Sprinkle the casserole with fresh parsley and serve hot with lemon wedges on the side.
