Directions

Step 1: Cook the fish

Heat the oven to 300ºF. Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper, then place on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, gently toss to coat, and bake until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 2: Make the citrus and olive topping

While the fish bakes, use a knife or your hands to peel the citrus, slice it into 1/2-inch wedges, and place in a medium bowl with the shallots. Season with salt and set aside.
Heat the remaining 4 tablespoons of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the olives and cook, tossing regularly, until sizzling and warmed through, about 3 minutes (it’s OK if the olives start to take on color, but not necessary). Turn off the heat, stir in the chile flakes if using, and let sizzle for 30 seconds. Stir the warm olives into the citrus mixture.

Step 3: Plate and serve

Serve the fish topped with the olive-citrus mixture and parsley or dill, along with toasted bread or grains for sopping up the juice.

Recipe Note

*Castelvetrano olives area Sicilian green olive famous for their green color, irresistible buttery-sweet flavor, and crisp, meaty texture.
