Roasted Turbot with Vegetables

Print this Recipe

(Rombo al Forno con Verdure)
Category: Fillets and Steaks
Calabria has a long coast along the Mediterranean Sea. In the summer, this region is popular with Italians and other Europeans seeking an inexpensive beach getaway. My husband and I once drove along the coast near Scalea and ate at a local restaurant with a big wood-burning oven. When we arrived, the cook was just removing big pans of vegetables roasted with olive oil and topped with fresh whitefish. The vegetables browned and infused the fish with their delicious flavor. At home, I use turbot when I can find it, but other whitefish steaks would be good too.


   1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
   1 medium zucchini, cut into 1-inch pieces
   1 medium eggplant, cut into 1-inch pieces
   4 medium boiling potatoes, cut into 1-inch pieces
   1 medium onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
   1 bay leaf
   1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon olive oil
   Salt and freshly ground black pepper
   4 thick turbot, halibut steaks or other whitefish steaks
   1 tablespoon lemon juice
   2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley


1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Choose a baking pan large enough to hold the fish and vegetables in a single layer, or use two smaller pans. In the pan combine the pepper, zucchini, eggplant, potatoes, onion, and bay leaf. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup of the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Toss well.

2 Bake the vegetables 40 minutes or until lightly browned and tender.

3 Put the fish steaks on a plate and sprinkle them with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, lemon juice, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Push the vegetables to the outside edge of the pan and add the fish. Bake 8 to 10 minutes more, depending on the thickness of the fish, until it is just barely opaque when cut in the thickest part. Serve hot.
