In a heavy saucepan, heat olive oil and onion and saute until onion is golden but not brown. Add garlic, tomatoes, olives, bay leaf, thyme, mushrooms, wine, water, salt, pepper and lemon juice. Simmer for approximately 20 to 25 minutes.

Place the trimmed fish portions in a baking dish. Pour Mediterranean sauce over the fish. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 15 minutes. Serve immediately.

This recipe yields 4 to 6 servings.
