Featured Movin’ Mama: Andrea’s Fish in the Pot Recipe

Thanks to our Featured Movin’ Mama Andrea, below you’ll find a super easy and quick recipe for Fish…something I know I am guilty of forgetting to include in my own weeknight dinner menus. Andrea suggests you serve your fish dish with fresh spinach, rice or even a side of whole wheat pasta.

Servings: 4

Ingredients:

2 lbs. of Halibut or white fish
Fresh Lemon
2 cloves of chopped garlic
olive oil
1/2 cup white wine
cherry tomatoes, chopped in half with no seeds
1 can of plain artichoke hearts
capers
kalamata olives
fresh parsley
Salt
Fresh ground pepper

Directions:

Use a white fish like halibut or cod and cut into serving size for # of guests.
Wash and dry fish, then add salt and pepper to taste
Put a small amount of olive oil on the bottom of a large heavy pot (if you have a ceramic one, that works best)
Cut and layer lemon slices on the bottom of the pot
Place the fish flat on top of the lemon slices
Add garlic, tomatoes, artichoke hearts, capers and kalamata olives to your liking, place all around the fish
Pour a little more olive oil over the top and then add white wine.
Cover the pot and cook over medium-high heat for 15 minutes (or until the fish is opaque and start to flake apart a little bit)
Turn off heat and sprinkle with a small amount of fresh parsley and a little more olive oil as needed.
