Stir in the tomato paste and cook for another minute. Add the chopped tomatoes, white wine, and stock (or water). Bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

Return the browned fish pieces to the pan. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
💡 Conseils de pro: Avoid stirring too vigorously to prevent the fish from breaking apart completely. - 6
If the sauce is too thin, you can simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes to thicken it.
