👨‍🍳 Instructions

Combine green bell pepper, tomato, onion, olive oil, olives, lemon juice, green onion, capers, garlic, sugar, salt, and pepper in a heavy pan over medium-high heat.

Saute until all ingredients are slightly wilted, 5 to 10 minutes.

Remove from heat and keep warm.

Heat olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat.

Add snapper fillets to hot oil.

Sprinkle Greek seasoning on top and cook for 2 to 3 minutes.

Turn fish over and cook on the other side for 2 more minutes.

Turn fish back to the original side and finish cooking until fish is tender and flakes easily with a fork, another 1 to 2 minutes.

Pour still-hot Athenian sauce over fish just before serving.

Sprinkle about 2 ounces feta cheese and 1 tablespoon of parsley over each portion.
