Instructions
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes.
- Add the olive oil, garlic, and tomatoes with their juices.
- Cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes or until the tomatoes begin to soften.
- Add the green olives, capers, tomato paste, and wine.
- Reduce the heat, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
- While the sauce is cooking, season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the fillets to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the fish.
- Cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the fish is cooked through.
Notes
- If using frozen fish, be sure to thaw it before starting to cook, and make sure to pat it as dry as possible before adding it to the pan.
- Leftovers should be stored in a closed container in the refrigerator and may be kept for 2-3 days. Reheat in a covered pan over very low heat on the stovetop.
