The catch of the day is a delicious classic Tuscan fish recipe.
"Livornese" refers to a method for stewing fish in a rich tomato
sauce with Kalamata olives, capers, garlic, fresh parsley, and white
wine.

Begin by adding a glug of olive oil to a sauté pan set over medium
heat. Add in some chopped garlic and chopped parsley. While these
ingredients are sauteing, prepare the cod by seasoning both sides
with salt and pepper.

Add the cod to the pan and let it cook for about 3 minutes on each
side. Delicately remove the fish to a holding plate, and begin making
the Livornese sauce:

Deglaze the pan with some white wine and let it reduce for a few
minutes. Then add in some roughly chopped tomatoes. Once the tomatoes
begin to soften, crush them with the back of a fork to extract all
their sweet, delicious juices.

Let the tomatoes simmer over medium heat for about 5 to 6 minutes, or
until the juices thicken a little. Add in the olives and capers, and
cook for a few minutes longer to combine all the flavors. Taste the
sauce, and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the cod back to the pan, and spoon some sauce over the fish,
cover the pan, and let it gently heat up for about five minutes. The
cod is delicate and flaky, so use a large spatula to portion onto
individual plates, and spoon all the Livornese sauce over the fish.
