Seabream with artichokes, tapenade and tomatoes.

serves 4

4 large fillets of sea bream with skin (or sea bass, mackerel or salmon)
6 tinned baby artichokes, well drained and rinsed
4 tablespoons Black Olive Tapenade
110 g large cherry tomatoes, halved
75 ml extra virgin olive oil
zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 x 20g pack of fresh basil (leaves only, thickly chopped)
4 tablespoons groundnut or sunflower oil, for oiling the tray
salt and freshly milled black pepper
cayenne pepper

 

First of all halve the artichokes lengthways, and mix these with the sunblush tomatoes, olive oil, lemon zest and juice and ( 1 hour before) chopped basil. Add a seasoning of salt and freshly milled black pepper, then leave the whole to sit for a while so the flavours can get to know each other.

When you’re ready to cook, pre-heat the oven to 190°C. Then, oil an oven tray and arrange the fish fillets on it (total of 12 on a tray), season with salt and cayenne pepper, and bake in the centre of the pre-heated oven for 30-40 minutes or so until just cooked.

Skin the fillets and spread a tablespoon of the tapenade over each fillet, then spoon the artichoke and tomato mixture equally on to four serving plates. Top this with the sea bream and serve.
