* Pour the rest of the olive oil, 1/2 cup, into a small bowl and mix it with salt, pepper, oregano, garlic and tomato paste.
5
* Place the tilapia fillets in the baking dish. The skin side should be up.

* Slice one green bell pepper into thin slices
8
* Slice one large onion into slices
9
* Place the green bell pepper and the onion around the tilapia fillets
