Recipe Description:

Directions: 
  1. Preheat skillet over medium heat. When several drops of water sprinkled on skillet skitter and dissipate, approximately 5 minutes, place onions in skillet and sauté for 2 - 3 minutes until lightly browned and softened.
  2. Add garlic, mushrooms and oregano and cook for 3 - 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms begin to soften.
  3. Add olives, artichoke hearts, capers and white wine. Stir to combine and cover. When Vapo-Valve™ clicks, reduce heat to low and cook for approximately 5 - 7 minutes.
  4. Add fresh herbs and tomatoes. Recover and cook for an additional 2 minutes, until tomatoes just begin to soften.
  5. Place artichoke stew in a bowl and set aside until ready to use.
  6. Season trimmed sablefish portions with salt and pepper.
  7. Clean and re-heat skillet over medium heat. When several drops of water sprinkled on skillet skitter and dissipate, approximately 5 minutes, place fish in skillet and cover with lid slightly ajar. Cook fish 3 - 4 minutes until it browns and can be easily turned with spatula.
  8. Turn fish and cover. When Vapo-Valve™ clicks, reduce heat to low and cook for an additional 4 - 6 minutes until cooked through (cooking time will depend on thickness of fish filet).
  9. Divide artichoke stew into 4 portions and top with fish.
  10. Serve with a wedge of fresh lemon to squeeze on top, if desired.
Tips: 
  • Mediterranean artichoke stew can be made in advance and stored for several days in the refrigerator. Stew is delicious served at room temperature or heated.
  • Serve stew with a side of rice, sautéed spinach and garlic, or kale.
  • Blot fish with paper towel after cooking to remove excess oil, if desired. Natural fat in the fish will help keep the fish moist and tender while roasting.
