Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Season both sides of the grouper fillets with a pinch of salt and black pepper.
In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
Sear the grouper fillets for 2-3 minutes per side until lightly golden. Remove the fillets and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining teaspoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the canned diced tomatoes, sliced black olives, capers, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir well and cook for 3-4 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Carefully return the seared grouper fillets to the skillet, nestling them into the tomato olive sauce. Spoon some of the sauce over the fish.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Remove the skillet from the oven, sprinkle the dish with fresh parsley, and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an added burst of freshness.
