Fish and Sauce Ingredients
- 500g white fish fillets (such as cod, haddock, or pollock)
- 400g canned chopped tomatoes
- 100g black or Kalamata olives, pitted and roughly chopped
- 2 tablespoons capers, drained
- 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare: Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Lightly grease a baking tray or line it with parchment paper for easier cleanup.
- Prepare the sauce: In a large bowl, combine the canned chopped tomatoes, olives, capers, minced garlic, olive oil, and dried oregano. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Assemble the tray bake: Arrange the white fish fillets evenly on the prepared baking tray. Spoon the puttanesca sauce mixture over the fish, ensuring the fillets are well covered but not submerged.
- Bake the fish: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley if desired. Serve the puttanesca fish hot, ideally with crusty bread, rice, or a side salad.
Notes
- You can use any firm white fish fillets like cod, haddock, or pollock.
- Adjust the amount of garlic and capers based on your taste preferences.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of red chili flakes to the sauce.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 2 days and are great reheated gently in the oven or microwave.
- This recipe pairs wonderfully with steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad.
