Steps

• 1. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Toss the bread with 2 tablespoons of oil and lemon thyme on an oven tray, then season with salt and pepper. Bake for 12 minutes or until crisp and golden.
  2. Meanwhile, combine onions, tomatoes, and 1 tablespoon of oil in a large roasting pan. Roast for 12 minutes or until the onions are soft and the tomatoes are blistered.
  3. To make the dressing, whisk together 60ml (1/4 cup) of oil and balsamic vinegar in a small bowl, then season.
  4. Heat the remaining 60ml (1/4 cup) of oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Add the kingfish and cook for 2 minutes, then turn over and cook for a further 2 minutes or until just cooked.
  5. Combine celery, olives, half the cheese, basil, three-quarters of the bread, tomato mixture, kingfish, and dressing in a large bowl. Scatter with the remaining bread and cheese. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil to serve.
