Layer onion slices, followed by tomato slices and garlic slices, in a 9×13-inch (20×30-cm) baking dish, preferably Pyrex. Place fish fillets on top.

In a small dish, combine olive oil with paprika, salt, and pepper. Pour over fish.

Do you think this would be good with salmon?

Yes, I think you could use salmon. The only thing, sometimes salmon needs a little longer to cook than white fish since it’s a fattier fish.

Just a tip: I found that the onions and garlic weren’t cooked enough so I put them in without the fish but a bit of oil on top for 20 min and then I added the fish and spices etc. We love this recipe!

Shows how there’s nothing new under the sun I was pondering what to enter for the Kosher.com recipe competition and thought of a perfect recipe when . . . here is an almost identical version, so there goes that idea. My only comments on this version is that IMHO, even with all the garlic, it needs a sprinkle of garlic granules, and something to give it another dimension, such as a little chilli or tumeric. Otherwise delicious. BTW – I use tilapia and have never needed to marinate it – the slices of lemon are adequate. A dried, persian lemon added to the pot also gives an extra zing.
