ORANGE ROUGHY WITH SAUTEED OLIVES, CAPERS & TOMATOES
This recipe is adapted from a recipe I found in an old Bon Appétit magazine by Chef Candida Sportiello. The modifications I made to this recipe were a reduction of the red pepper flakes eliminating some of the heat, and adding capers and white wine at the end of the saute period! It is such a fabulous and tasty dish I didn't feel it needed much in the way of change at all.. She is quite the chef and restaurateur!

Tips for Cooking Fish with Sauteed Olives, Capers, and Tomatoes:
- Select Fresh, High-Quality Fish: Choose firm and vibrant-colored fish fillets with a mild, sweet flavor. Orange roughy is an excellent option, but other white fish like cod, halibut, or tilapia can also be used.
- Properly Season the Fish: Before cooking, season the fish with salt, pepper, and any desired herbs or spices. This will enhance the natural flavors of the fish and make it more flavorful.
- Use Good-Quality Olive Oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for sautéing the olives, capers, and tomatoes. Its fruity and peppery flavor will complement the fish perfectly.
- Be Patient with Cooking the Fish: Fish cooks quickly, so it's important to be patient and not overcook it. Cook the fish until it is just opaque in the center and flakes easily with a fork. Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
- Let the Fish Rest Before Serving: After cooking the fish, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the fish, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
Conclusion:
The combination of delicate fish, savory olives and capers, and tangy tomatoes creates a flavorful and satisfying dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're cooking for a weeknight meal or a special dinner party, this recipe is sure to impress.
