Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1/2 cup dry red wine
4 tablespoons capers
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried
1 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano or 1/2 teaspoon dried
1/8 teaspoon hot red pepper flakes
1/2 cup canned crushed tomatoes
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
12 pitted black olives
4 boneless salmon fillets, about 6 ounces each
1/3 pound goat cheese, crumbled
2 tablespoons anise-flavored liquor, like Ricard
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the onion and garlic, and cook briefly while stirring. Add the wine, capers, rosemary, oregano, pepper flakes, tomatoes, salt, pepper and olives. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 475 degrees.
  • Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil in a baking dish large enough to hold the fish in one layer. Arrange the fish skin-side down, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour the tomato sauce around the fish fillets, brush the top of the fillets with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the cheese.
  • Bake for 5 minutes and sprinkle with Ricard. Switch to the broiler and broil for 5 minutes. Do not overcook the fish. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve immediately
