BAKED FILLET OF SOLE WITH TOMATO, OREGANO AND HOT PEPPER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Adjust oven rack to the top level.
• Put onion and olive oil in a skillet, turn heat to medium, and cook until the onion is golden. Add garlic, and saute until it turns pale gold; then add the tomatoes and a little salt, and stir. Simmer 20 minutes, until the oil floats on the surface of the mixture. Add the capers, oregano and pepper. Stir and cook a minute longer, and remove from heat.
• Rinse and dry the fish. Select a baking dish large enough to hold the fillets folded in half lengthwise in a single layer. Spread a tablespoon of the tomato mixture in the bottom of the dish.
• Dip each fillet in the tomato mixture to coat both sides, fold lengthwise, and arrange in the baking dish. Pour remaining sauce over fish, and bake, uncovered, 5 minutes or slightly longer, until fish is done.
• Remove from the oven, tip the dish and spoon the sauce from the dish into a saucepan. Cook the sauce over high heat until it has returned to its original thickness. Spoon it back over the fish, and serve directly from the baking dish.

SOLE EN PAPILLOTE WITH TOMATOES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°F. Fold four 15-inch-square pieces of parchment in half. Starting at fold of each piece, draw half a large heart shape. Cut along lines; open. Place 1 fish fillet next to crease on each piece of parchment. In a small skillet, warm 1 tbsp oil over medium heat. Sauté sliced garlic and pepper flakes until garlic turns golden, 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat; stir in tomatoes, capers and olives. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Divide tomato mixture among fish. Top each fillet with 2 teaspoon wine, 1 teaspoon butter and 2 thyme sprigs. Fold other half of parchment over fish. Starting at top of each parchment half-heart, make small, tight, overlapping folds along outside edge to seal packet; twist tail ends tightly to seal completely. Place packets on a large rimmed baking sheet; roast 8 minutes. Broil or toast ciabatta until golden; rub with garlic clove halves and brush with remaining 4 teaspoon oil. Transfer packets to plates. Slit tops with a knife; gently open. Serve 1 slice ciabatta with each packet.
