TILAPIA WITH PIMIENTO SAUCE
I found this recipe on a cooking blog that I frequently read, and it's so good. This dish is so easy because everything is prepared in one skillet, on the stovetop. The fish comes out with tons of flavor, and all the flavors complement each other very well. Any mild, white fish can be subtituted for the tilapia, too. Sometimes, I drain the tomatoes and add 1/4 c. white wine to the sauce. My picture shows this with Recipe #69063, and crusty bread might be good with this too.

Steps:
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the onions and cook until tender, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about a minute more.
- Add tomatoes, mushrooms, olives, oregano, and pepper. Bring sauce to boiling.
- Gently place the fish fillets in the pan and scoop some of the sauce over the fillets. Return to boiling.

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes. If tomatoes are out of season, you can use canned whole tomatoes, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- If you don't have capers, you can substitute chopped green olives.
- If you don't have anchovies, you can omit them or add a splash of fish sauce.
- To make the sauce spicier, add a pinch of red pepper flakes.
- Serve the tapenade immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion:
This Talapia with Puttanesca Sauce is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of tangy tomatoes, briny olives and capers, and umami-rich anchovies creates a delicious sauce that perfectly complements the mild-flavored talapia.
