6 fillets firm-fleshed white fish, boneless and skinless
3 bulbs fennel, sliced thinly
1/4 cup olive oil
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 lemons, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 cup capers, rinsed
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons chopped Italian parsley
lemon wedges to serve
Directions
Preheat the oven to 180ºC.
Wash the fish fillets and pat dry on paper towels.
Heat a large ovenproof frypan over medium heat. Add the fennel and olive oil. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes to soften and cook the fennel. Add the garlic and lemon slices. Cook for another 2 minutes. Place the fish on top of the fennel mixture and sprinkle with the oregano and capers. Pour over the white wine. Place in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes.
Serve sprinkled with the chopped parsley and fresh lemon wedges to squeeze over.
