Wegman's fish with tomatoes, olives and capers

6 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
6 Fillets-Roughy, Trout, Sole
½ cup Flour
¼ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Capers, drained
12 Pitted kalamata olives, halved
12 Sun-dried Tomatoes, drained, cut up (olive oil packed)
1 cup (28 oz) Cut Tomatoes w/Basil
⅓ cup Chopped Parsley
Salt and pepper

Directions

FOR THE SAUCE

Sprinkle fish lightly with salt and pepper and coat with flour.

Preheat oil in large pan over medium heat. Add fish and cook for 1½ minutes on each side. (A little longer [2 - 2 ½ minutes] for the Orange Roughy which is thicker and denser than the others, according to the demo man.) Transfer to paper towels to drain while preparing the sauce.

Add capers, olives, sun-dried tomatoes and canned tomatoes to the frying pan. Simmer until heated through, about 2-3 minutes.

Add fish back into pan with sauce; simmer two minutes. Transfer to platter and garnish with parsley.

Shirley and I had full servings of this at a demo at a local Wegman's Supermarket. It was superb. The demo guy agreed with Kathy Pitt's caution to be <very> careful about overcooking fish. Kathy, Chief Cook at Texas Red Lobster, wrote me once here about the best way to order fish: ask the waiter to slowly walk the raw fish on a platter through the hot kitchen and serve it.
