About the dish

Spigola alla pitarillara is a traditional fish dish originating from Molise. The dish is usually made with a combination of sea bass slices, garlic, tomatoes, olive oil, basil, bell peppers, parsley, and salt. The garlic, tomatoes, basil, peppers, and parsley are cooked in olive oil and seasoned with salt. Once the tomatoes become tender and cooked down, the sea bass slices are added to the pan. The mixture is stirred, the pan is covered, and the dish is then simmered for about fifteen minutes before it's served hot.
