Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
3 large garlic cloves, pressed
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups purchased marinara sauce
3/4 cup chopped roasted jar-packed red bell peppers
1/4 cup sliced fresh basil
2 6- to 8-ounce red snapper fillets

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté 1 minute. Add wine and bring to boil. Add marinara sauce, roasted peppers and half of basil and cook until reduced to thick sauce, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Sauce can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Reheat before continuing.)

    Step 2

    Pour remaining 1 tablespoon oil into small baking dish. Add fish; turn to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over fish. Bake just until cooked through, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle remaining basil over and serve.
