Ingredients
- 1 1/3 lbs plum tomato ripe
- 2 cloves garlic peeled and smashed
- 1/3 cup white wine
- 1-2 Tbsp tomato paste the kind in the tube is handy
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 lb halibut fillet Norwegian or Pacific
- 2 bell pepper seeded and sliced; used 1/2 of 4 different color peppers
- olive handful; I used Castelvetrano
- 2 Tbsp capers drained
- 1 tsp fennel seeds
- 1 lemon Meyer variety; cut in wedges
- 1 Tbsp butter
garnish
- parsley fresh, chopped, handful
- red onion very thinly sliced slivers
- olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F
- Rinse and chop the tomatoes into large chunks. Put them into a food processor with the garlic, and pulse/process them until pureed, but they don't have to be super smooth, some texture is good.
- Put the tomatoes in a skillet and bring up to a boil. Turn down the heat to medium and add the wine and paste. Let it cook for about 15 minutes at a gentle bubble, so it can thicken. Taste and season well with salt and pepper.
- Pour the sauce into the bottom of your baking pan. Top with the fish. Add the sliced peppers, olives, capers, fennel seeds and lemon wedges around the fish and nestle everything into the sauce.
- Dot the fish with butter and loosely cover with foil. Bake for 40 minutes, removing the foil half way through. Check your fish with an instant read thermometer, the fish is done at 135F. Finish the dish under the broiler for some last minute color if you like.
- Top the fish with the parsley and onions, drizzle with good olive oil, shower with fresh cracked black pepper and serve.
Notes
- I was actually out of tomato paste and used my Harissa paste (also in a tube) which made this sauce deliciously spicy. If you love harissa, give it a try in this recipe.
- If you love fresh basil, you could add it to the the tomato sauce when you add it to the pan. (Don't cook it beforehand.)
- I like to soak the raw onions in cold water while the fish bakes, this helps to take the sting out of their flavor. Dry on paper towels before topping the fish.
