Ingredients
  • 1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup finely chopped fennel
  • 1 cup finely chopped leeks (white and light green parts only)
  • 4 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 pound tomatoes, peeled, seeded, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup pitted sliced Kalamata olives or other brine-cured black olives
  • 4 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
  • 4 6-ounce halibut fillets (each about 1 inch thick)
  • lemon wedges and leftover fennel fronds for garnish

Directions
  1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over mediun-high heat. Add fennel, leeks, and garlic and saute until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add wine and cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add tomato paste, both kinds of tomatoes, the olives and 1 teaspoon of the rosemary and cook until slightly thickened. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (This part can be made ahead - up to 2 days. Rewarm over low heat before serving.
  2. Combine remaining 1/3 cup oil and 3 teaspoons rosemary in small bowl. In a shallow dish arrange halibut in a single layer. Pour flavored oil over; cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
  3. Prepare grill to medium-high heat. Season halibut with salt and pepper. Grill until fish is just opaque in center, about 7 minutes total, turning once.
  4. Arrange fish on serving platter; spoon relish over.
  5. Garnish with lemon wedges and the fennel fronds.
