Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion and garlic in the hot oil until onion is soft
about 5 minutes. Add spinach to skillet; cook and stir until spinach is wilted and cooked down
5 more minutes. Stir olives
feta cheese
lemon rind
salt
oregano
and white pepper into spinach. Cook until feta cheese has melted and flavors have blended
about 5 more minutes.
Spread spinach mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish. Arrange tilapia fillets over spinach mixture. Mix butter and lemon juice in a small bowl and drizzle over fish; sprinkle with paprika.
Bake fish in the preheated oven until the flesh is opaque and flakes easily
20 to 25 minutes.
Cook's Note:
Doubling the recipe serves 6 to 8 comfortably and bakes in a 9x13-inch glass baking dish perfectly. These amounts work for 3 or 4 pieces of fish. The spinach really cooks down.
