    Sauté red and green peppers and onion in olive oil until slightly soft.

  2. 2

    While they are sautéing, season fish with salt and pepper, both sides. Melt butter in saucepan on medium heat. Add fish, skin side down. Cover and cook, periodically basting with melted butter, until side of fish looks cooked. Flip fish to cook on the other side.

  3. 3

    When vegetables are softened, add sofrito, tomato sauce, salt and pepper. Simmer 5 minutes. When done, pour over fish in pan to allow fish to soak up some of the flavor. Serve with a side of rice, if desired.
