- 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions
- Place the mahi mahi in a bowl and set aside.
- In a small bowl mix 2 tablespoons of the olive oil with chopped garlic, oregano, black pepper, rosemary, lemon juice, salt, cumin and Aleppo pepper. Drizzle over the mahi mahi and make sure all parts of the fillets are coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes if time permits.
- Preheat the oven to 400° F and coat a baking sheet with cooking spray. You can also line the baking sheet with aluminum foil first and coat it with cooking spray to make cleaning easier.
- Mix the cherry tomatoes with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Arrange them on the baking sheet.
- Place the marinated fish on the baking sheet and Top with the garlic and spices that were in the marinade.
- Bake at 400° F for about 20 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily and the tomatoes are roasted.

Notes
- If using frozen mahi mahi, thaw it completely before you start cooking.
- You can double or triple this recipe, the cooking time will remain the same.
- It's best to serve mahi mahi fresh out of the oven, however, you can keep the fish marinated for up to one hour. I don't recommend marinating over one hour since it can alter the texture of the fish.
- Serve this dish with side dishes such as brown rice, Greek potatoes, Greek lemon rice or briam (Greek roasted vegetables).
