Method

1Tomatoes first
- Heat the oven to 400F.
- Cut the onion into thin wedges and slice the garlic thin.
- In a baking dish, toss the whole cherry tomatoes with the onion, garlic, 2 tbsp of the olive oil, the oregano and season with salt.
- Roast 12 minutes until the tomatoes start to burst and turn jammy.

2Add the fish
- Pat the fish dry and season with salt and pepper.
- Nestle the fish into the hot tomatoes so the juices come halfway up the pieces.
- Top each piece with a thin slice of half the lemon.
- Return to the oven 12 to 14 minutes, until the fish flakes at a nudge.

3Couscous
- Meanwhile, put the couscous in a bowl with a pinch of salt and the last tbsp of olive oil.
- Pour over ¾ cup boiling water and cover with a plate.
- Leave 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork and the zest of the remaining lemon.

4Plate
- Spoon the couscous into shallow bowls.
- Set the fish on top and spoon every last bit of the burst tomato pan juices over it.
- Cut any remaining lemon into wedges and serve alongside.
