PESCADO A LA VERACRUZANA: WHITE FISH IN VERACRUZ SAUCE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil into a large saucepan and place over medium-high heat.
- Add the chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent, about 2 minutes.
- Lower the heat to medium and add the chopped garlic; sauté for a minute or two until fragrant.
- Add the chopped tomatoes and roasted and chopped green chiles and continue to stir and cook.
- Reduce the heat again to medium-low and add the remaining ingredients, except for the fish. Simmer the sauce for 10 to 15 minutes.
- While the sauce is cooking, heat another pan over medium heat and drizzle the bottom with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil .
- Place the fish in the pan and lightly season each piece with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for 3 to 6 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and cooked through. (The cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of each cut of fish.)
- To serve, place a piece of fish on each plate and top with 1/4 of the sauce; or you can place all of the fish on a platter and spoon all of the sauce on top.
- Enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a medium saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the fish fillets on both sides with salt and black pepper, to taste. Saute the fillets until they are opaque and just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a glass baking dish where they fit snugly.
- In the same saute pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatoes, Anaheim chile, bay leaf and oregano and bring the pan to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, cover and let the sauce simmer until the chiles soften, about 6 minutes. Uncover the pan, add the olives and capers, and cook until the flavors combine, about 4 minutes. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Pour the sauce over the fish in the baking dish. Bake until the fish is heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove the dish from the oven, discard the bay leaf and serve.

Steps:
- PREPARING THE SAUCE
- Over medium heat, fry the onion and garlic in 3 tablespoons of cooking oil for 4 minutes.
- Add the tomato, black pepper, and salt.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook the sauce for 15 minutes until the tomatoes have given off much of their liquid.
- Then, crush the tomatoes, onion, and garlic with a bean or potato masher.
- Next, add the spices and stir.
- Add the chicken broth.
- Add the chopped olives and capers and stir. Simmer for 15 more minutes.
- COOKING THE FISH
- After the sauce has simmered for 15 minutes, start cooking the fish. In a separate pan over medium heat, lightly brown each side of the fish in 3 tablespoons of oil.
- Once you have browned the fish on both sides, place each fish fillet in the simmering sauce.
- Cook for 10 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly and the fish is fully cooked and has taken on the flavor of the sauce.
- Check the flavor of the sauce and adjust the salt if necessary.
- SERVING
- Serve the fish with white rice. First, put the rice on the plate then place the fish next to the rice. Gently spoon about 1 cup of the sauce over the fish and serve immediately.
