Steps:

• Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Dredge in flour. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add fish and sauté until lightly browned and just opaque in center, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in same skillet. Add shallots and crushed red pepper; sauté 1 minute. Mix in tomatoes, olives, 1/4 cup basil, and capers. Add clam juice and wine. Boil until sauce thickens slightly, about 4 minutes. Mix in 1/4 cup basil. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over fish.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the spaghetti and cook, stirring occasionally, until barely tender.
• While the pasta cooks, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook for 1 minute. Add the capers and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally until the shrimps turn pink and firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the lemon juice, parsley and season with salt and pepper.
• Drain the spaghetti and return to the warmed pot. Add the shrimp and its sauce and toss, adding the remaining 3 tablespoons oil or more if you wish.
• Transfer to a large, warmed serving bowl.
• Garish with freshly grated parmegiano reggiano cheese. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a glass, steel, or pottery bowl, combine the black olives, rosemary, lemon zest, and 1 cup olive oil. In another bowl, combine the green olives, peppercorns, star anise, thyme, and remaining 1 cup oil. Let the olives marinate, covered, for 6 hours to a week.
• Season shrimp with salt and pepper. In a saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons oil from the black olives, and saute shrimp over highest heat until just done, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Whisk together 1/4 cup oil from the black olives and the lemon juice in a large bowl. Toss frisee in this dressing; top with shrimp, some of the drained olives, and capers. Season to taste.

Steps:

• Cut the halibut steaks in half. Wipe them dry with paper towels and coat them on both sides with one tablespoon of the olive oil. Set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a heavy saucepan. Saute the onion and garlic until soft. Add the wine, stock and tomato puree. Cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
• Preheat broiler.
• Remove the cover from the sauce and reduce by half. Meanwhile, broil the halibut steaks on both sides until cooked (about 5 minutes on each side).
• Stir the walnuts into the sauce. It should be quite thick. Season with pepper and add the olives and capers.
• Place the steaks on heated plates and cover each one with the sauce. Serve immediately.
