Ingredients

  • 2 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia

  • 1 splash dry white wine

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Sauce:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3 large plum tomatoes, chopped

  • 1 large zucchini, sliced and quartered

  • ¾ (6 ounce) can chopped black olives

  • ¼ cup dry white wine

  • 20 sprigs cilantro, chopped

  • ½ teaspoon hot sauce

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Arrange tilapia in a baking dish. Add a splash of white wine and season with salt and pepper.

  3. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir until garlic is fragrant and onion is tender, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes. Cover and simmer until tomatoes begin to release their juices, about 4 minutes.

  4. Add zucchini, olives, and wine; simmer for 5 minutes. Add cilantro and hot sauce. Season with salt and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes longer. Spoon sauce over and around tilapia and drizzle with remaining olive oil. Cover tightly with foil.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 45 minutes.

Cook's Note:

Any fish fillets with not too many bones can be used in place of tilapia.
