ingredients
- 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus some extra for the pan and fish
- 24 ounces sole fillets
- kosher salt, to taste
- fresh ground black pepper, to taste
- 14 ounces plum tomatoes, drained
- 1 small onion, halved and sliced

directions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.

- Lay the fish out on your work surface skin side up. Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and season with a little bit of salt and pepper, to taste. Fold the fillets in half (thick end over thin) and lay them right down the center of the prepared gratin dish, slightly overlapping.
- Crush the drained tomatoes through your fingers into a bowl. Stir in 3 T. of the olive oil, the onion, olives, capers and pepper to taste. Stir in the parsley and spoon some of the mixture right over the fish, letting some of the sauce to fall to the sides.
- Toss the remaining 2 T. olive oil with the bread crumbs until they are evenly moist and then scatter them over the fish.
- Bake until the fish is cooked through and the crumbs get crispy and brown - about 25 minutes.

For this delicious entree I took the suggestion of another reviewer and added some fresh variegated oregano from the garden (and fresh curly parsley, too!) Same day Oregon-caught ling cod was a good choice for the fish. I also added a little bit of the kalamata olive juice; homemade breadcrumbs. Since this main took top billing, I served with simple sides: basic saffron rice and lightly steamed veggies. Leftovers were enjoyed over scrambled eggs for breakfast the following morning. Made for the FYC tag game.

Hello! I have a wonderful husband and two fantastic kids. I love to read, have fun with family and friends, stay active with: running; soccer; golf; biking; hiking; and gardening. I love to travel. I'm looking forward to more international travel someday. Cooking has become a passion for me. I love to read cookbooks, watch the Food Network, and try new recipes. I have way too many cookbooks! A few of my favorites are: Barefoot Contessa (any - but especially 'Family Style'),Rachael Ray 30-Minute Meals 2, Roasting by Barbara Kafka, Beyond Parsley & The Black Dog Summer on the Vineyard Cookbook. I try to carefully choose recipes that I think my family will enjoy, which is why most of my ratings are 3-5 stars. Happy cooking!
