Arrange the fish in a baking dish in a single layer. In a
small bowl whisk together 2 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper and pour over
the fish. Let stand 30 minutes at room temperature. Preheat oven to 400°. In saucepan
over medium heat, combine tomatoes, garlic, wine, honey, parsley and oregano. Simmer for
