Step by Step guide

Step 1

In a large skillet, heat the oil. Add the finely chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, until the onion is soft and translucent.

Step 2

Add the garlic, chopped tomato flesh, and sugar to the skillet and continue cooking, stirring and breaking up the tomato pieces with a spatula, for another 10 minutes.

Step 3

Now add the pompano fillet to the skillet, along with the thyme sprigs (or bay leaves), season with salt, and pour in the wine.

Step 4

Cover the skillet and simmer, adding a little water as needed, for about twenty minutes—until the fish flakes easily. Before serving, remove the thyme (or bay leaves) and garlic from the finished dish.
