I first tried this recipe when Loblaws changed their name to Loblaws Great Food and they were giving out food samples and recipe cards. It is a very tasty recipe.

Time 30m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

25 kalamata olives, rinsed, pitted and roughly chopped
2 1/2 teaspoons capers, rinsed
2 1/2 tablespoons red onions, finely diced
8 plum tomatoes, cut into medium dice
10 large basil leaves, roughly chopped
1/2 cup flat-leaf Italian parsley, roughly chopped
1 1/2 cups extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
10 (6 ounce) red snapper fillets
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In large bowl stir together olives, capers, red onion, tomatoes, basil, 3 tbsp parsley and 1 C olive oil. Season with salt, fresh black pepper and red pepper flakes and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • In large fry pan, heat 3T remaining olive oil until hot. Working in batches, season fillets with salt and pepper. Cook on one side until opaque, about 3 minutes, lowering heat if necessary to prevent burning. Turn fillets over and cook 3 minutes more. Transfer to platter and loosely cover with foil to keep warm. Cook remaining batches wiping pan clean between batches and starting with fresh oil for each batch.
  • Remove fish to a serving platter pour lemon juice into pan and swirl around to combine with pan juices. Drizzle over fish and garnish with tomato-olive mixture.
