 If you like a lot of sauce and want to serve this with rice or pasta,


 double the sauce ingredients. Any firm fish can be substituted for the


 snapper.


 


 To absorb excess water in fish, place fillets on paper towels and squeeze


 gently. Combine marinade ingredients and pour over fish in a zipper bag.


 Refrigerate for an hour or so; turning occassionally.


 


 When ready to prepare, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a 10-inch frying


 pan over medium heat and add onion and garlic. Cook until onion is soft and


 translucent, about 4 minutes. Add remaining ingredients, except fish.


 


 Cook, uncovered, over low heat until sauce is thick and smooth, about 15


 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place fish fillets in a


 single layer in a baking dish. Pour sauce over fish and bake, uncovered,


 until fish flakes when pierced with fork, about 20 minutes.


 


 Serve hot from the baking dish.
