Ingredients:

3 tbsps

Pure Olive Oil

2 tbsps

Unsalted Butter

Directions:

1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees

2

In a large sauté pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and the butter over medium-high heat

3

When the butter foams, add the onions, stirring to coat, and season with salt and pepper

4

Cook for 8 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden

5

Let cool

6

Stack two pieces of aluminum foil that are large enough to wrap the fish in on top of one another

7

Fold up the sides of the foil so that it resembles a little boat

8

Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil into the boat and spread it over the bottom

9

Lay the potatoes in the boat in one layer, and season with salt and pepper

10

With a sharp knife, make slashes in one side of the fish about 1 1/2 inches apart, going almost to the bone, and season with salt and pepper

11

Repeat on the other side of the fish

12

Lay it on top of the potatoes

13

Spoon the mojo verde on top of the fish

14

Lay the tomatoes on top of it and spoon the rest of the mojo on them

15

Spoon on the caramelized onions

16

Pour the wine around the fish

17

Fold the foil over to enclose the fish, crimping the edges to seal and set on a baking sheet

18

Roast the fish for about 1 hour, or until cooked through (carefully open the foil to check: the fish should flake easily when tested with a fork); cooking times can vary significantly depending on the thickness and type of fish

19

(The baked fish can be kept warm, and still retain its moisture, for up to 30 minutes if kept wrapped

20

) Serve with lemon wedges and, if you like, extra mojo verde on the side

21

Recommended wine: A wine with soft acidity and sweetness, such as a Vouvray or an American Pinot Blanc
