Sturgeon with Caper, Olive and Tomato Sauce
- 1 pound sturgeon fillet, cut into 2 pieces
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup sliced onion
- 1 teaspoon fresh chopped rosemary
- 1/4 cup dry-cured or brine-cured olives, pitted
- 3 teaspoons capers
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup fresh tomato sauce (or a very good canned one)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Preheat saute pan over medium high heat (hot pan, cold oil, food won't stick) until just warm and add the olive oil.
- Let oil heat and place fillets in the pan.
- Let sides brown for 1 minute or 2, then add onion.
- Stir until onion starts to become translucent.
- Add garlic and rosemary.
- Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until garlic just begins to brown.
- Flip fillets over to brown.
- Add olives and stir in.
- Then, add capers.
- Stir for 1 to 2 minutes, then, add white wine.
- Increase heat for a few minutes to reduce wine.
- Reduce heat to medium and add tomato sauce.
- Stir to combine all ingredients and let sit for a few minutes.
- Flip fillets so that both sides are coated with sauce.
- Fish is done when there is resistance to pressure.
- (Check also with your seafood market person about recommended cooking times for the fish.)
- Freshly ground pepper can be added during the cooking, but salting the dish isn't necessary since there is a lot of salt in the olives and capers.
- Serve with rice, pasta, or couscous.
- Garnish with a sprig of fresh rosemary.
