Ingredients

  • 2 cups crushed tomatoes
  • ¾ cup Kalamata olives, pitted, roughly chopped
  • 2 cups loosely packed basil leaves, washed, dried, roughly chopped
  • ½ cup finely diced red onion
  • 3 tablespoons capers
  • ½ to 1 teaspoon crushed chili flakes, depending on the amount of heat you want
  • 5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • pound Sole fillets (or other mild white fish like Cod, Tilapia or Bass)
  • freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Set the oven. Preheat the oven to 375°F and adjust a rack to the center.
  • Make sauce. Add the crushed tomatoes to a 9 x 13 x 2 - inch baking dish. Add the olives, basil, onion, capers, chili flakes, extra virgin olive oil and salt. Mix to blend all of the ingredients and remove about ⅓ of the mixture and set it aside in a bowl.
  • Add fish and bake. Lightly sprinkle the fillets with black pepper and then add them to the baking dish. Spoon the sauce you set aside over the tops of the fillets. Place in the preheated 375°F oven and bake just until the fish is cooked through, about 15 minutes.
  • Serve. Serve the fish over the pasta, rice, potatoes, or alongside a crusty bread.
