Finishing steps:
- Preheat oven to 450. Rinse and drain white beans, set aside.
- On a foil-lined baking sheet, toss broccoli with olive oil, salt & pepper. Roast for 10 minutes, then toss, and roast another 5-10 minutes.
- Heat a small amount of oil in a nonstick skillet over med heat. When oil is hot, add onions and season with salt & pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally until translucent, 2-3 minutes. Add puttanesca sauce base. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.
- Season fish with a little salt & pepper, then nestle down into the skillet with the puttanesca sauce. Cover and cook 5-7 minutes or until fish is cooked through.
- Meanwhile, place rosemary into saucepan along with enough oil to coat the bottom. Place saucepan over med-low heat and warm gently until you can start to smell the rosemary, about 1-2 minutes.
- Add white beans, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, 3-4 minutes. When beans are hot, use a fork to smash to desired consistency, add a splash of water if they seem a bit dry. Season with salt & pepper to taste.
- Serve tilapia with puttanesca sauce accompanied by the white beans and crispy broccoli.
PG-13 Footnote: In Italian, the word puttana is literally translated as whore, so as you can imagine there are plenty of stories about the history of puttanesca sauce. In any case, you can chuckle a bit as you serve this tonight.
