4 servings
For the fish
- 4 white fish fillets (cod, halibut, or tilapia), about 6 oz each
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
Ingredient noteOregano is fine during pregnancy in normal cooking amounts - this recipe uses about 1/4 tsp per serving. The caution is about concentrated oregano oil and large medicinal doses.
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
For the greens
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 bunch swiss chard (about 10 oz), stems removed, leaves roughly chopped
- 1 bunch kale (about 8 oz), stems removed, leaves roughly chopped
- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ tsp sea salt
For serving
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional)
- 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped (optional)
Instructions

Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of each fillet.

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat until hot, about 3–4 minutes. Lightly oil the grates or pan surface. Place the fillets on the grill and cook undisturbed for 4–5 minutes, until the underside is opaque and releases cleanly from the grates.
