Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Add the slivers of garlic and shallots and cook, stirring until light golden brown about 2 minutes or so. Add the chili paste and stir for another 2-3 minutes. Remove the sauce from heat, transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
  2. Place the tomatoes and a splash of olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat and season with salt and pepper. Cook the tomatoes stirring occasionally, until they burst, about 5 to 8 minutes. Add the water and the wine. Stir to combine the ingredients. Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 8 minutes or so.
  3. Season the fish with salt and pepper and gently lay the pieces in the sauce. Cover the skillet and cook until the fish is opaque and just cooked through, 6 -8 minutes or slightly longer for thicker pieces of fish. Drizzle the fish with the chile garlic sauce. Top with fresh basil and serve with a squeeze of fresh lime juice.
