This Sheet Pan Mediterranean Snapper from Alexis Joseph, MS, RD, LD of Hummusapien is tangy and bright, full of citrus goodness, seasonal veggies, and the yummiest za’atar yogurt marinade to keep the fish super tender. The ease and flavor of this one pan wonder means you can make it on repeat all year long! If you can’t find snapper, feel free to use barramundi, mahi mahi, or trout instead.
