- Heat the olive oil in a frying pan with a lid over medium heat. Stir in the leeks and garlic, cook and stir 3 minutes until the leeks begin to soften. Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer, then add the tomatoes, chicken stock, thyme and dill. Simmer, uncovered, until the liquid reduces to half.
- Lay the sole fillets on top of the sauce and cover the frying pan. Cook until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, about 10 minutes. Ladle the sauce over the sole to serve.

Totally Awesome! My husband said."It's so Gourmet." I used Talapia instead of Sole. - 24 Jan 2009 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
This recipe is definitely a keeper! I think it is incredibly easy, fast, and inexpensive considering I'm just a college student. Definitely purchase some sole when it's in season (as I did). I had to adjust the amount of ingredients used because sole can be an extremely thin fish, so I purchased more than the 2 fillets which the recipe calls for. I used a white wine that I knew was delicious and actually left out the thyme because I didn't want to spend money on two herbs. GREAT recipe. - 20 Apr 2010 (Review from Allrecipes US | Canada)
