Ingredients
-
1 12-ounce jar roasted red sweet peppers, drained
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup water
2 tsp. dried basil, crushed
2 Tbsp. tomato paste
1 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
1/2 tsp. sugar
1/8 tsp. salt
Dash cayenne pepper
1 pound fresh orange roughy or cod fish fillets
1 lemon, sliced
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. lemon-pepper seasoning
Directions
1. For sauce, in a blender container or food processor bowl combine peppers and garlic; cover and process until nearly smooth.
2. Add ½ cup of the water, the basil, tomato paste, vinegar, sugar, the 1/8 tsp. salt, and cayenne pepper. Cover and blend or process with several on-off turns until mixture is nearly smooth.
3. Transfer to a small saucepan; cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until heated through.
4. Meanwhile, rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Measure the thickness of fish. Cut fish into 4 serving-size pieces.
5. In a large skillet bring the remaining ½ cup water and half of the lemon slices just to boiling. Carefully add fish. Return just to boiling; reduce heat.
6. Simmer, covered, for 4 to 6 minutes per ½-inch thickness of fish or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Gently pat tops of fish dry with paper towels.
7. Sprinkle fish lightly with the ¼ teaspoon salt and lemon-pepper seasoning.
8. Spoon the sauce onto dinner plates. Place the fish on top of sauce. Garnish with remaining lemon slices.
