ingredients
- 1 sea bass
- 15-20 black olives
- 1 onion
- 1 green pepper
- 1 red pepper
- 1 tomatoes, ripe
- 2 garlic cloves, unpeeled
- 1 fresh thyme sprig
- 1 sprig summer savory
- 226.79 g white wine
- 44.37 ml tomato sauce
- salt, to taste
- pepper, to taste
directions
- Peel the onions & cut into strips. Wash & chop up the peppers.
- Heat 3-4 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil in a frying pan & fry the onion, peppers & unpeeled garlic cloves.
- Peel & dice the tomato & add to the pan w/the olives & sprigs of thyme.
- Add the tomato sauce.
- Place the filleted sea bass on top of the vegetables. Pour over the wine & cook for another 7 min (covered) until the fish takes on a glossy, white colour & flakes easily.
- Serve the sea bass atop the vegetables.
- NOTE #1: It's prob just me over-thinking this prep, but I'd be inclined to peel & slice (or chop) the garlic cloves vs leaving them in the dish whole & unpeeled. Just a thought.
- NOTE #2: Unless I missed some details, the recipe didn't include the size of the sea bass or the # of servings. I suppose the latter depends largely on the former, but I'll try to research the average size of sea bass off the coast of Spain & amend this recipe as needed.

I am an American transplanted from Dallas to Iceland by marriage to a native Icelander & I retired to become his "Kitchen Queen". We love to entertain our family & friends, so I have an eclectic collection of recipes. I especially love simple, easy-fix, flexible & make-ahead recipes - BUT also like challenging myself on occasion. I enjoy baking & food photography. I am devoted to the "More is Always Better Principle" & apply it liberally to bacon, butter & garlic. I can have ingredient issues due to availability here in Iceland & my DH is medically diet-restricted from some ingredients as well. Either situation might require me to modify a recipe, but I will do my best to be true to your recipes & fair/honest in my reviews. Mary Pat (aka twissis)
