1 jarred, roasted red pepper (found in olive aisle)
2-3 tbs of sliced black olives
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
1-2 tbs of white wine vinegar

Preheat oven to 400 degrees and lightly oil a baking dish. 

In a food processor, blend the tomatoes (do not drain) with the roasted red pepper and pour into the bottom of your baking dish. Place the fish filets on top of the sauce. Sprinkle fish with olives, olive oil, salt and pepper (to taste), vinegar (again to taste) and the dried thyme.
