Fish and vegetables play a big part in healthy eating. This recipe has both.

Serves 4

Fish and vegetables are key parts of a healthy diet, such as the Mediterranean diet.

Set the best 4 tomato slices aside. Chop the rest of the tomatoes into small cubes. Place the tomato cubes into a bowl. Add the onion, capers, balsamic vinegar, olive oil and feta cheese. Stir to mix.

Put the oven rack in the upper position and heat broiler to high. Line two rimmed baking sheets with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray. Place zucchini rounds in a single layer on one baking sheet. Place fish fillets on the other sheet. Spray the tops with cooking spray.

Place the zucchini under the broiler for about 1 minute. Turn the zucchini and season with half the lemon pepper. Broil for another minute. Then move the baking sheet with the zucchini to the bottom of the oven to keep warm.

Place the fish fillets under the broiler for about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets. Keep broiling until the fillets spring back when touched lightly, about 3 to 6 minutes. Cooking time depends on how thick the fillets are. Season them with the rest of the lemon pepper.

Put 1 slice of tomato on each of four plates. Put the zucchini in an overlapping circle on top of the tomatoes. Place a fish fillet on the zucchini. Top with the diced tomato mixture.
