Ingredients | Gulf Red Snapper

1 large green bell pepper, diced

1 medium ripe tomato, diced

1 medium yellow onion, diced

4 ounces Greek extra-virgin olive oil

4 ounces pitted kalamata olives, sliced

2 ounces lemon juice

1 green onion, chopped

1 tablespoon capers

1 tablespoon minced fresh garlic

1 tablespoon sugar

½ tablespoon salt

½ tablespoon ground black pepper

2 ounces Greek extra-virgin olive oil

4 (10 ounce) fillets red snapper

2 ounces Greek seasoning

1 (8 ounce) package feta cheese

¼ cup chopped fresh parsley, or as needed

Directions

Combine green bell pepper, tomato, onion, olive oil, olives, lemon juice, green onion, capers, garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper in a heavy pan over medium-high heat. Saute until all ingredients are slightly wilted, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and keep warm.

Heat olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat. Add snapper fillets to hot oil. Sprinkle Greek seasoning on top and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn fish over and cook on the other side for 2 more minutes. Turn fish back to the original side and finish cooking until fish is tender and flakes easily with a fork, another 1 to 2 minutes.

Pour still-hot Athenian sauce over fish just before serving. Sprinkle about 2 ounces feta cheese and 1 tablespoon of parsley over each portion.
