Chatelaine Triple Tested

Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup pitted kalamata olives, finely chopped

  • 3 plum tomatoes, finely diced

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 shallot, finely diced

  • 2 tbsp capers, coarsely chopped

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 tsp lemon zest

  • 2 tbsp lemon juice

  • 2 tbsp chopped dill

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 6 tilapia fillets, about 950 g

Instructions

  • PREHEAT oven to 400F. Cut foil twice the size of a large baking sheet. Lay half on sheet. (The other half will hang off the side.)

  • STIR olives with tomatoes, garlic, shallot, capers, oil, lemon zest and juice, dill and salt in a bowl. Arrange fish in a single layer on foil. Top fish with olive mixture. Cover with overhanging foil. Make overlapping pleats around edges to seal.

  • BAKE in centre of oven until a knife tip inserted into the thickest part of fish comes out warm, 13 to 15 min. Reserve 2 fillets and sauce for puttanesca fish stew. Serve remaining fish and sauce over quinoa.
