Delicious Broiled Fish Matecumbe

The recipe for Broiled Fish Matecumbe is incredibly simple and can be prepared in advance, with the final cooking step completed just before serving.

 Inspired by a favorite dish at The Fish House in Key Largo, Florida (and even featured on Food Network!), it’s loaded with vibrant flavors that are surprisingly, satisfyingly delicious together.

• tomatoes • onion • capers • olive oil • basil • lemon juice • shallots

Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, capers, olive oil, basil, lemon juice, shallots, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, stirring gently.

1.

Meanwhile, place fish fillets on a rimmed baking sheet. Season both sides of the fish evenly with the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/16 teaspoon pepper.

2.

Broil fish on the first side for about 4 minutes. Remove the fish from the oven, flip the fish over, and top the fish evenly with the tomato topping mixture.

3.

Because the tomato topping is best if made ahead and refrigerated for at least an hour (or up to a day ahead), almost all of the work in this recipe can be completed ahead of time.
