Instructions
- 1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- 2 Combine tomatoes, olives, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, and capers in a bowl. Place flour in a shallow bowl.
- 3 Place fillets on a flat work surface; season with salt and black pepper. Dredge one side of each fillet in flour.
- 4 Heat oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add fillets, floured-sides down; cook, undisturbed, until lightly brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Stir broth into skillet, scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Add 1/2 tomato mixture, onion, garlic, bay leaves, and thyme; cook for 3 minutes. Nestle fillets into the skillet.
- 5 Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven; bake until fish flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 7 minutes.
- 6 Remove and discard bay leaves. Add remaining tomato mixture to the skillet; season with salt and black pepper. Serve fillets topped with tomato mixture.
