bell pepper. Peel,seed and slice tomatoes. Cook onions in olive oil until
translucent.Add green pepper and cook 3 minutes.Add tomatoes to pan and
cook a few more minutes. Place fish in pan, top with the Dende oil, cover
the pan and cook until fish is almost cooked through. Add chopped herbs and

boil. Even if you don't use the Dende oil, it is still delicious.
