Tuscan Fish Melt


Paired with pasta cooked in a slightly tangy tomato-based sauce, this sophisticated dish will go well with a glass of your favorite white wine.

For the tapenade
2 cloves garlic
4 tablespoons capers
1 cup pitted black olives
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon anchovies
