I have made this a number of times. Thought I reviewed it. It is simple and delicious. I don't like stewed tomatoes so I use the canned tomatoes with the seasoning. I also add some capers wiht the olives.... DELISH. Little girl and DH love it!

A wonderful healthy recipe for white fish. We used basa fillets, green olives, and omitted the basil due to personal preference. We also did not do the oil step -- still tasted fabulous. Thank you!

OMG this was so good... I used Basa Filets and sliced black olives. Not being a serious wine drinker, I purchased the 4 little bottle set of white wine to keep in the frig for dishes that use wine in their cooking. That being said, it wasn't until I finished eating that I realized I had never put the wine in the fish! It was so good though as it was, the wine must make it spectacular - I can't wait to make this again. I plan on fixing this again and again and again... I could (and probably should) eat this every night!

Good, quick easy, healthy. I'll use this recipe again. I did exactly as indicated except used a whole standard can of chopped tomatoes, as suggested by the other reviewers and I used all the fish in the package, 600grs. The black olives were fantastic and just the touch it needed. Very nice recipe.

This is an absolutely perfect, healthy, after-work recipe for us. I made as written but used a 14-oz. can of stewed tomatoes, drained of all juice and pimiento stuffed, chopped green olives. We just loved the combo of flavors served over steamed rice. I will definitely make this again, it's so good! Thanks Southern Lady for sharing this recipe :)
