And now it’s time to cook. First, take your extra teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil and rub it around your baking pan. Get it nicely on the sides and in the corners with your fingers for even distribution. Next, put all of your fresh chopped parsley along the bottom of the pan. This is typical around the Mediterranean to use herbs and spices in large quantities. It brings out the aromatics and flavor. Next, lay out the potatoes the same as the herbs. After you lay the potatoes evenly, you will want to take the thawed and drained frozen spinach and layer it on top of your potatoes. Once you have laid out the spinach, scatter the cubanelle peppers on top of the spinach. And next, take the oregano and place it on top of the peppers evenly. Place the fish evenly on top of the already made layers. Get them close together and keep them stacked evenly. Once you have laid out all of the fish, go ahead and toss on the chopped garlic and add in your diced tomato. Top your assembled ingredients with the sea salt and ground pepper.

Now, combine the remaining olive oil, flour and paprika in a separate container. Mix it up evenly. This will be the basis for the sauce and will also act as a thickening agent and bring out a real nice flavor. Carefully add a half cup of water to the sides of the pan to help cook the vegetables. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and cook for 40-45 minutes. Ovens can be tricky, so visual confirmation of what the fish looks like is good to follow.
