Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 200C/400F/ gas 6.

Step 2

Place tomatoes, courgettes, garlic, olive oil and basil leaves in a shallow ovenproof dish. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place into the preheated oven and cook for 20mins.

Step 3

Whilst the vegetables are cooking, make the bread crust. Break the ciabatta into rough crumbs by rubbing between your hands. Mix with the prosciutto, pine kernels and a drizzle of olive oil.

Step 4

When the vegetables are tender, place fish on top and pile on the bread crust. Put in the oven and cook for 30-40 mins depending on the thickness of the fish.

Step 5

Serve immediately with a green salad and crusty bread.
