Instructions

  1. Step 1 Prepare onions and potatoes

    Place onions and potatoes in sauté pot with cold water and heat until simmering. Once simmered for 2 minutes, strain and reserve.

  2. Step 2 Prepare fish fillets and charred peppers

    Prepare fillets by seasoning each with salt and pepper. 

    Place whole sweet peppers in cast iron skillet and heat until peppers start charring. Rotate peppers until even charring occurs. Remove and cut peppers into bite size pieces.

    In the heated skillet, place oil immediately followed by seasoned fillets. Rotate fillets once browning occurs, after 2-3 minutes. Cook fillets for an additional 1 minute, remove and reserve covered loosely with aluminum foil to keep warm.

  3. Step 3 Finish and serve

    Add lemons, peppers, potatoes, onions, and tomatoes to skillet.

    Once vegetables brown, return fillets to the top of skillet. Finish with parsley, olive oil, salt, and pepper. 

    Serve with toasted bread.
