1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 cup raisins
1 cup extra-virgin olive oil, divided
4 (6-oz.) mackerel fillets, from 2 (1 1/2-lb.) whole fish
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 1/2 cups chopped red bell pepper

1
Combine the wine and raisins in a small bowl; let stand 10 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cut 3 shallow slits in the skin side of the fillets. Sprinkle fillets with 1 teaspoon salt. Add 2 fillets, skin sides down, to skillet, and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove skillet from heat; turn fish. Let stand 3 minutes. Transfer cooked fillets to a 13- x 9-inch glass or ceramic baking dish. Discard oil from skillet. Repeat procedure with 2 tablespoons of the oil and remaining 2 fillets. Wipe skillet clean with paper towels.

Heat the remaining 3/4 cup oil in skillet over medium. Add the bell pepper, onion, and pine nuts to skillet, and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender and pine nuts are lightly toasted, about 7 minutes. Stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. Add the eggplant; saute 1 minute. Add raisin mixture, vinegar, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt to skillet, and cook until mixture is slightly syrupy, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour sauce mixture over fillets; cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Sprinkle with parsley, and serve at room temperature with baguette slices. (Or cover and refrigerate fillets overnight, allowing the fish to come to room temperature before serving.)
