Roasted Fish Catalan Recipe

  • 1 pound thick-cut, firm-fleshed fish fillets (Pacific halibut or mahi-mahi)
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons dry white or red wine
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 (14 ounce) can whole tomatoes, drained and coarsely chopped
  • 8 black olives, preferably Kalamata, pitted and coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest
  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Cut fish into 4 serving pieces and season with salt and pepper. Arrange in a single layer in a 10-inch pie plate or baking dish.
  2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and saute until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add wine and garlic and simmer for 30 seconds. Stir in tomatoes, olives, oregano and orange zest. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon mixture over the fish.
  3. Bake until the fish is opaque in the center, about 15 minutes.
