This dish is so easy to put together. It is very healthy and tasty. You can also used the same marination and the way of cooking it for any other type of fish fillets. I can get this fish on the table ready in less than 30 minutes. Enjoy!

2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 chopped green onion
1/2 diced bell pepper
1/2 diced tomato (optional)
1 lime juice
Little bit of lime zest

Let it marinate in the fridge if you can for 30 mins, if you do not have time then no worries.
