Tender fish bake recipe with the most beautiful and delicious juices.  The combination of the fresh lemon, seasoning, basil pesto, tomatoes and melted Parmesan cheese gives you the best flavors!

We used regular hake fillets but I am sure the recipe works with just about any fish. If you can get your hands on fresh fish wonderful but frozen fish works just as brilliantly. All you have to do is make sure that the fish has reached room temperature before you start.
