How to Make Baked Fish Plaka Style Greek
- In a large skillet, saute 2 large onions, chopped, in 2 tablespoons olive oil until golden brown and almost caramelized (about 15-20 minutes).
- Peel and chop 2 medium tomatoes.
- Add the chopped tomatoes to the caramelized onions along with 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley and 2 cloves minced garlic.
- Simmer for 5 more minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Place 1.5 lbs fish fillets (cod, snapper, or your favorite firm white fish) in a lightly buttered 6-quart crockpot.
- Sprinkle the fish with 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Spoon the sauteed vegetable mixture evenly over the fish.
- Slice the remaining tomato and arrange over the vegetables.
- Top with 2-3 lemon slices.
- Cover and cook on low for 1 1/2 hours, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on your crockpot and the thickness of the fish fillets.
- Serve over cooked rice or crusty bread for a complete and satisfying meal.

Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
