Ingredients

🐟 2 whole fish
🧂 Salt
🌶️ Black pepper
🍋 Lemon juice
🌾 A little flour for dusting the fish
🍷 1/2 cup white wine
🧅 600 g dry onions, thinly sliced
🍅 400 g tomato pulp
🧄 6 cloves garlic, minced
🍃 2 bay leaves
🌿 A little olive oil
🍶 1 tablespoon vinegar
🌿 2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Instructions

1- Marinate the Fish:

Clean the fish thoroughly and pat dry.
Season them with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Set aside to marinate.

2- Prepare the Onion and Tomato Sauce:

In a pan, heat some olive oil over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and sauté them, occasionally covering the pan, until the onions soften and reduce in volume.
Stir in the tomato pulp, garlic, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Allow the mixture to cook together for 5-7 minutes until the flavors blend well.

3- Cook the Fish:

In another pan, heat a little olive oil.
Lightly dust the marinated fish with flour.
Fry the fish lightly on both sides until they begin to turn golden.
Deglaze the pan with white wine, ensuring all the flavorful bits are lifted.

4- Assemble and Bake:

Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F).
In a baking dish, spread the fried onions and tomatoes as a base.
Adjust the seasoning by mixing in 1 tablespoon of vinegar and black pepper.
Place the sautéed fish on top, and drizzle with a bit more wine, olive oil, and lemon juice for flavor enhancement.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes.
