1 In a large Ziploc bag, add olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice,

the Ziploc bag. Seal tightly and shake to coat. Refrigerate
fillets for at least 1 hour, shaking them occasionally.

marinade and place in a baking dish.
3 Add marinade to a large skillet and warm over medium heat. Add
leeks and red bell pepper. Cook for 15 minutes or until tender.
4 Meanwhile, place fillets under the broiler, 4 to 6 inches from

until fish easily flakes with a fork, about another 4 minutes.
Top fillets with vegetables and sauce; serve.
