- In a skillet, sautee the garlic, onion and frying peppers in the olive
- oil until onion is transluscent (about 2 min). Add the Broccoli and let
- it cook until bright green.
- .SK 2
- Add the rest of the peppers and the brussel sprouts/cabbage, the tomatoes,
- basil and salt and pepper. Toss very well so the tomatoes have a chance
- to cook. Add the grouper and cover for about 5 min.
- .SK 3
- The liquid from the fish mixes with the tomatos for a kind of sauce.
- Add the parsley and cover until the fish is cooked all the way through.

- cup of cheese so keep it handy.
- .SK 5
- Serve over Cappelini.
- .NX
- If you are entertaining you can garnish with fresh parsley and serve with a
- caesar salad, garlic bread and a nice chablis.
- .PP
- The vegetables can vary. I've used mushrooms, spinach, cauliflower etc.
- .PP
- Grouper works well with this because it has a lot of flavor. I've used fresh
- tuna and halibut but prefer grouper.
