Halibut with Tomato, Garlic, Capers, Olives and White Wine Sauce

I made this for dinner tonight, and it was excellent.  I served it with Herb Parmesan Red Potatoes roasted with butter, and a nice green salad.  My hubby was a happy man!  The recipe was posted on Lana's Cooking, but I adapted it to my taste.
Ingredients
  • 2 TBS olive oil
  • 1 TBS minced garlic
  • 2 TBS minced onion
  • 1 can diced tomatoes, drained
  • 1/3 cup stuffed green olives, cut in half
  • 2 TBS capers
  • 1/2 C dry white wine
  • 2 Halibut fillets
Instructions
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat for a few minutes.  Add the olive oil, garlic and tomatoes. Cook, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes or until the vegetables begin to soften.  Add the green olives, capers,  and wine.  Reduce the heat, cover and cook for 5 minutes.  While the sauce is cooking, season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the fillets to the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the fish.  Cover and cook until the fish is flaky and cooked through.

    1. Thank you, Miz Helen. My hubby loves capers too. I thought the olives might overpower the dish, but they just enhanced the flavor.
