- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup halved kalamata olives
- 2 tablespoons drained capers
- 1 tablespoon minced anchovy fillets (3 to 4 total)
- One 16-ounce can crushed tomatoes
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste

Directions
For the puttanesca sauce: Heat the oil in a medium saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Saute the onions and garlic until translucent, about 2 minutes, and then stir in the olives, capers and anchovies, tossing to combine. Add more oil, if needed. Stir in the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Once at a boil, stir in the tomato paste, followed by the oregano and red pepper flakes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Sprinkle the fish with salt and black pepper and squeeze with 1 piece of the lemon. Grill the fish seasoned-side down without moving it, 4 to 5 minutes, and then sprinkle salt, black pepper and lemon juice on the other side of the fish and flip. Continue grilling, another 4 to 5 minutes.
Top the fish with the Puttanesca Sauce.
