Za’atar style fish tray bake with Tenderstem® broccoli by Dr Rupy of The Doctor’s Kitchen
Method
-
Preheat the oven to 180ºC (fan assisted)/200ºC/Gas mark 6.
-
Arrange the fennel, red pepper and halved garlic bulb in a baking tray then add the za’atar and the olives. Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with half the olive oil, then bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through until the vegetables have taken on some colour.
-
When the roasted vegetables have about 10 minutes left to cook, blanch the Tenderstem® broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute then drain and set aside.
-
Cut the fish fillets into 4cm chunks, keeping the skin on to hold the fish together.
-
Add the fish to the roasting tray and give everything a good mix around. Arrange the Tenderstem® broccoli on top then drizzle with the remaining oil and add a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Return to the oven and roast for another 8 to 10 minutes until the fish is cooked through.
-
Remove the skin from the chunks of fish, squeeze out the cloves of garlic from the roasted bulb and use as many as desired, then garnish with the fennel fronds and serve.

Dr Rupy Aujla: The Doctor's Kitchen. Dr Rupy is an NHS GP who has a love for food and the health benefits that eating well can provide. His recipes are healthy, quick and delicious and partner very well with our similarly healthy green veg - Tenderstem® broccoli.
In his first book, The Doctor’s Kitchen, Dr Rupy explains the science underpinning the benefits of healthy eating and how largely plant based ‘colourful’ diets are the healthiest. He also explains why gut health is important and how you can make important changes to your diet and lifestyle.
In his second book, Eat to Beat Illness, Dr Rupy takes a more focused approach on how we can eat and live to reduce the risk of brain disease, cardiovascular problems, inflammation imbalance and many more illnesses that he has come across during his career as a doctor.
We are delighted to be teaming up with Dr Rupy who has created three new recipes, perfect for light lunches at home or mid-week meals. Each recipe features delicious flavours from around the world and, of course, his favourite veggie: Tenderstem® broccoli. What’s more, each recipe is a healthy option for a mid-week meal – all three recipes are under 500 calories per serving, as well as being low in saturated fat and a source of fibre.
