Prepare & roast the vegetables
1 Prepare & roast the vegetables

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Medium dice the potatoes. Cut out and discard the core of the cauliflower; cut into small florets. Place on a sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer. Roast 18 to 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

2 Prepare the remaining ingredients

Meanwhile, roughly chop the olives. Roughly chop the peppers. Thinly slice the scallions. Halve the lemon crosswise; squeeze the juice into a bowl, straining out the seeds. In a large bowl, combine the chopped olives, chopped peppers, and sliced scallions; drizzle with olive oil and stir to combine.  

Cook the fish
3 Cook the fish

Pat the fish dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides. Season only on the skinless side with enough of the spice blend to coat (you may have extra). In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned fish, skin side down. Cook 5 to 7 minutes, or until the skin is browned and crispy. Flip and cook 1 to 2 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through.* Turn off the heat. 

*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for fish.
