- In a preheated skillet, over medium heat, add your "Sauce Step 1" ingredients and saute for 7-8 minutes until onions and peppers are translucent and fragrant.
- While onion and peppers are sauteing, combine "Sauce Step 2" ingredients in a bowl. Add to skillet once onions/peppers are ready. Saute it all together for 2-3 more minutes, being careful not to burn your garlic.
- Transfer to a bowl.
- Pat dry your cod filets with a paper towel and generously salt and pepper both sides. Add to your now empty skillet, along with the oil. Allow them to saute on one side, untouched for 3 minutes (still at medium heat). Then flip your cod and allow another 3 minutes.
- Pour your sauce into the skillet and add your capers and kalamata olives. Allow it all to simmer together for another minute and then remove from heat and serve immediately.
