Sicilian Swordfish with Onions image

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 anchovy fillets, chopped
1 cup peeled, seeded, and chopped fresh tomato, or drained and chopped canned tomatoes
pinch of dried oregano, crumbled
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
4 swordfish steaks, about 3/4 inch thick
2 tablespoons plain dry bread crumbs

Steps:

1 Pour 2 tablespoons of the oil into a medium skillet. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the anchovies and cook 5 minutes more or until very tender. Add the tomatoes, oregano, salt, and pepper and simmer 10 minutes. 2 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Oil a baking pan large enough to hold the fish in a single layer. 3 Pat the swordfish steaks dry. Place them in the prepared pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon on the sauce. Toss the bread crumbs with the remaining 1 tablespoon of the oil. Scatter the crumbs over the sauce. 4 Bake 10 minutes or until the fish is just slightly pink in the center. Test for doneness by making a small cut in the thickest part of the fish. Serve hot. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone.
