In this quick, elegant dinner, cherry tomatoes are roasted with garlic, shallots, sherry vinegar and a drizzle of honey, turning them into a sweet and savory condiment for simple roasted fish. This versatile, year-round recipe is delicious with juicy end-of-summer tomatoes or even with a pint from the grocery store. Thick white fish such as cod or halibut work best here. Serve with rice, couscous or your favorite grains, and a green salad.

Preparation

Step 1
Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the tomatoes, shallots and garlic in a 9-by-13-inch nonreactive baking dish. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. Pour over the tomatoes and toss to combine. Roast until the tomatoes have collapsed and the shallots are translucent, about 15 minutes.
Step 2
While the tomatoes roast, pat the fish dry with paper towels, brush all over with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 3
Toss the tomatoes, move them to the sides of the dish and place the fish fillets, evenly spaced, in the center. Roast until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
Step 4
Sprinkle the entire dish with the lemon zest, basil and mint. Serve the fish with the tomatoes, spooning any remaining juices on top.

I made this dish tonight. It was wonderful. I added a layer of sliced thin potatoes on the bottom of the pan and baked them at high heat until they were crispy. I then added the tomatoes and later the fish. It was so good. Can't wait to make it again. I used cod for the fish

This is a very versatile recipe. I made it with hake and added diced red pepper, kalamata olives, and a bit of preserved lemon to the tomato mix before baking. I think it could be seasoned in a dozen different ways and be equally delicious.

I make this all the time with Haddock and use whole wheat panko mixed with butter for the topping. I also cook the fish and tomatoes together in the same pan. Delicious!,

Delicious easy and versatile. I made with halibut and added leeks and summer squash.

Made this last night. Added 1 yellow pepper to the cherry tomatoes in the beginning and really cooked it all down. When adding fish (did 8 pieces of fish with tomato mixture in between pieces) also added capers. It was superb and one of my favorite recipes ever. Will make over and over again.

Anchovies instead of honey is another good way.
