Preparation

Step 1

In a deep fry pan over medium heat, warm 2 Tbsp of the olive oil. Add the bell peppers and cook, stirrring frequently, for 2 minutes. Add the garlic, oregano, stock, 1/4 Tsp salt and a pinch of pepper. Cover and cook until peppers are tender and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, place the fillets on a plate. Season both sides with the paprike and then sprinkle with salt.

Set a heavy fry pan over low heat to preheat. When the peppers are nearly done, increase the heat under the empty fry pan to medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 Tbsp of oil. Sprinkle the fillets on both sides with the flour, shaking off the excess. Add the fillets to the pan and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn the fillets over and cook until just opaque throughout, about 3 minutes.

Stir the vinegar into the peppers and season with salt and pepper. Transfer the fillets to individual plates, spoon the peppers over and alongside the fillets and serve immediately.
