Broiled Tilapia with Tomato Caper Sauce

In our home, we are trying to start the New Year off right with some healthy dishes! I know everyone quotes resolutions of "loose weight" and "eat healthy" and "exercise"... and I figure, why not us too! I think we eat fairly healthy any ways (I strive for many veggies on the plate, and I ALWAYS limit the butters and salts), so we are basically half way there! And what's better then making a goal? Making an accomplish-able goal! WOO!

Ingredients
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
4 (6 oz) tilapia filets
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 shallots, minced
2 tomatoes, chopped (or some left over marinara sauce works great!)
2 tbsp capers
1/4 cup white wine (I used Pinot Grigio)
salt and fresh pepper

Directions:
Brush fish with 1 tbsp olive and season with salt and pepper.

In a medium sauté pan, heat remaining olive oil. Add garlic and shallots and sauté on medium-low about 4-5 minutes. Add tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Add wine and sauté until wine reduces, about 5 minutes. Add capers and sauté an additional minute.

Meanwhile, set broiler to low and place fish about 8 inches from the flame. Broil until fish is cooked through, about 7 minutes.

Place fish on a platter and top with tomato caper sauce.
