Preparation facts

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs (680g) red snapper, fillets

1/2 cup (60g) flour

2 Tbs (30mL) vegetable oil

1 medium onion, sliced

1 medium tomato, coarsely chopped

2 Tbs (15g) capers, (or more to taste)

1/2 cup (90g) green olives

1 medium bell pepper, sliced into strips

1 cup (240mL) dry white wine

Lemon slices to garnish

Directions

Heat oil in a nonstick skillet.

Dip snapper pieces in flour. Place snapper pieces in skillet and cook for 2 minutes on each side.

Add onions to pan. Cook for 2 minutes, shaking pan to prevent sticking. Add tomatoes, capers, olives and bell pepper strips to fish, gently stirring while cooking.

Reduce heat to simmer and cook for 5 minutes more. Add wine and bring to a gentle boil.

Season with pepper and a pinch of salt, if desired. (Capers can be very salty, so take care not to oversalt).

Garnish with lemon slices.
