Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oven to 475°F. Pat fish dry and place skin-side up on a sheet pan.

  2. Step 2

    Toss green peppers with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange around the fish.

  3. Step 3

    Drizzle fish with remaining 2 tbsp olive oil, scatter capers over top, and season with salt and pepper.

  4. Step 4

    Roast until fish skin is crispy and flesh flakes easily, 10–12 minutes. The thickest part should be opaque.

  5. Step 5

    Nestle lemon wedges around the pan. Scatter fresh herbs over the fish and peppers.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over everything.
