Mediterranean-Style Marinated Fish (Or Chicken!) Fillets

1. 1

   In a shallow bowl, mix oil, vinegar, pepper, basil/thyme and garlic.

2. 2

   Coat both sides of fillets.

3. 3

   Break bay leaves into 3-4 pieces, press onto both sides of fillets.

4. 4

   Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or overnight (overnight is better!) Remove bay leaves and discard extra marinade.

5. 5

   Sprinkle with salt and cook over medium high heat in large skillet (nonstick is best).

6. 6

   For example: a thick cod fillet will need about 4 minutes per side, thin long fillets 2-3 minutes/side.

7. 7

   Drippings in the pan are great on pasta--deglaze pan by adding a bit more red wine vinegar (or just WINE!) and toss with freshly cooked (not rinsed!) warm pasta.
