Curtis Stone's flavorful braised snapper with roasted tomato, capsicum, olives, and capers is a must-try dish that elevates the natural taste of the fish.
Ingredients:
  • 1 onion, roughly diced
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1 red capsicum, roughly diced
  • 3 sprigs fresh basil, roughly chopped
  • 1 sprig fresh oregano finely chopped
  • 1 long red chilli, finely chopped
  • 250.00 gm dry white wine
  • 6 truss tomatoes (about 1kg), roughly diced
  • 62.50 ml kalamata olives, pitted
  • 62.50 ml baby capers, drained
  • 4 x 170g snapper fillets
  • Salt & pepper
  • Water (optional)
Instructions:
  • In a large heavy frying pan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons of oil. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft, about 8 minutes. Add the capsicum, basil, oregano, and red chili, and cook until the capsicum is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour the wine into the pan to deglaze, then simmer until the liquid reduces by half, approximately 10 minutes.
  • Simmer the tomatoes gently for 35-40 minutes until very tender, topping up with water as needed. Remove from heat and stir in olives and capers. Season the sauce lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Nestle the fillets in the flavorful tomato sauce, ensuring they have room to cook evenly. Seal the dish with a snug lid or foil, and simmer over medium heat until the fish is perfectly cooked, approximately 8-10 minutes.
  • Ladle the flavorful tomato and pepper sauce generously over the fish, creating a stunning presentation that will impress all your guests. Serve immediately to enjoy the delicious flavors!
