Season fish with salt and pepper and add to baking dish, ensuring it's completely surrounded by tomato mixture. Cover with foil and roast for 15 minutes.
Remove foil, spoon tomato mixture over fish and roast uncovered for 15 more minutes or until fish flakes easily and interior is no longer translucent (145° internal temperature).
