Recipe View Bake fish in the preheated oven until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily, 20 to 25 minutes.

For an even richer flavor, consider using oil-cured olives instead of Kalamata.
A sprinkle of toasted pine nuts would add a delightful textural contrast.
Feel free to substitute other types of white fish, such as cod or halibut, for the tilapia.
To prevent the spinach from becoming too watery, make sure to squeeze out any excess moisture after it's wilted.

    I found that baking the fish for a bit less time (around 18 minutes) resulted in a more tender and moist fillet.

  • Benedict Grant

    I added a squeeze of lemon juice to the spinach mixture as well, and it really brightened up the flavors.

  • Laila Cronin

    My family absolutely loved this! Even my picky eaters devoured it.
