Halibut - Mediterranean Style - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 halibut steaks or 2 halibut fillets (6-8 oz/180-250 g)
1 pinch salt
1 pinch fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
2 large plum tomatoes, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons capers, rinsed and drained

Preparation

Sprinkle both sides of fish with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a large, non-stick frying pan and set over medium-high heat.
Add fish and cook until lightly golden, from 2 to 3 minutes per side.
Remove to a plate.
(If using fillets, remove skin, if you wish.) Cover with foil to keep warm.
Add wine to pan, then stir in Italian seasoning.
Boil, stirring occasionally over medium-high heat, until wine is reduced by half, from 1 to 2 minutes.
Stir in tomatoes and capers.
Return fish and any accumulated juices to pan.
Cover and reduce heat to medium-low.
Continue to cook, turning fish halfway through, until firm to the touch and a knife tip inserted into thickest part of fish comes out warm- from 7 to 10 minutes.
Place fish on dinner plates and spoon sauce overtop.
