Basil Baked Cod Fillets

1/2 pound cod, haddock, lingcod, or orange roughy fillets
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Dash of salt
2 plum tomatoes, cored and cut lengthwise into thin slices
2 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese

Drain and pat fillets dry and cut into 2 serving pieces. Combine oil and lemon juice in a baking dish. Add fish and turn to coat both sides. Sprinkle with basil, pepper, and salt. Overlap tomatoes in an even layer on fish and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 400 degrees F about 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily.
