Tilapia with Pimiento Sauce

For variety, substitute any white fish, such as halibut or orange roughy, for the tilapia.

1 tbsp olive oil

1 small onion, cut into thin wedges

1 clove garlic, minced

1 14 1/2oz can diced tomatoes, undrained

1 cup sliced cremini or button mushrooms

3/4 cup pimiento-stuffed olives, coarsely chopped

1 tbsp snipped fresh oregano or 1/2 tsp dried oregano, crushed

1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp freshly ground pepper

4 6 to 8 oz tilapia fillets

Hot cooked rice and/or crusty bread slices

In a large skillet heat olive oil over medium heat.. Add onion and garlic; cook until onion is tender, for 2 to 3 mins. Add tomatoes, mushrooms, olives, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring sauce to boiling.

Gently place fish in sauce in skillet, spooining sauce over fish. Return to boiling. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. With a wide spatula, lift fish from skillet to serving dish. Spook sauce over fish. Serve with rice and/or crusty bread slices.

Makes 4 servings.

My notes: I added a splash of white wine, a few capote capers, and some lemon zest. Served over Israelli Couscous.
