MEDITERRANEAN-STYLE MARINATED FISH (OR CHICKEN!) FILLETS
This is adapted from a recipe that came with some Penzeys spices I got as a wedding gift. It is fabulous. Cook time includes maximum possible marinade time. I think some feta sprinkled on top would be wonderful.

Steps:
- In a shallow bowl, mix oil, vinegar, pepper, basil/thyme and garlic.
- Coat both sides of fillets.
- Break bay leaves into 3-4 pieces, press onto both sides of fillets.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight (overnight is better!) Remove bay leaves and discard extra marinade.
- Sprinkle with salt and cook over medium high heat in large skillet (nonstick is best).
- For example: a thick cod fillet will need about 4 minutes per side, thin long fillets 2-3 minutes/side.
- Drippings in the pan are great on pasta--deglaze pan by adding a bit more red wine vinegar (or just WINE!) and toss with freshly cooked (not rinsed!) warm pasta.
