Instructions
Sprinkle fillets evenly with salt and pepper.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; coat pan and fillets with cooking spray.
Add fish to pan, skin sides up. Cook 3 minutes or until lightly browned.
Coat pan with cooking spray.
Add fennel and onion; saut 3 minutes.
Add tomato, tapenade, and lemon juice; stir well. Return fillets to pan, nestling them into fennel mixture. Cover and cook 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Spoon fennel mixture over fillets to serve.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Fish on the menu? Try pairing with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The GIFFT by Kathie Lee Gifford Pinot Grigio with a 4.8 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 15 dollars per bottle.
