Italian Family Style Fish

Directions

1. 1

   Slice tomatoes in half or into quarters. Dice onions and peppers using as much or as little of each of the onions and peppers. Smash and roughly chop garlic.

2. 2

   Preheat a pan, cast iron skillet or throw away aluminum pan, big enough to hold the fish, on medium heat (around 350-375). Drizzle in oil and add the onions and peppers to cook for 3 minutes then add the garlic and tomatoes and torn parsley and basil. Season with salt and pepper tossing to coat in the oil. Cover with a lid or dome and let cook, checking and stirring every few minutes.

3. 3

   Meanwhile, pat the fish dry with paper towels, rub a small drizzle of olive oil on and season lightly with salt and fresh cracked black pepper. Sear the presentation side for 1-2 minutes, flip and sear 1-2 minutes and place fish in the center of the tomatoes, cover and let the fish cook through and tomatoes cook down.

4. 4

   Garnish with basil and serve with Italian bread for scooping.
