Prepare the fish and cut the fillets (this step can be done by your fishmonger).
Prepare the stuffing for the courgette flowers:
Remove the pistil and the green corolla from the flowers, set them aside for later.
Finely chop the courgettes and scallions and slow-cook them in a frying pan with a little olive oil.
Take the vegetable mixture and add some chopped basil.
Stuff the flowers very delicately and gently turn the end to enclose the stuffing.
Blanch and peel the tomatoes, then cut them in half and set them aside.
Season the fish fillets on each side with a pinch of salt and a few twists of pepper. Heat some olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.

Place the fillets skin-side down in the pan, add the stuffed courgette flowers, tomatoes, olives, basil, and leave to cook for a few minutes. When the fish is three-quarters cooked and the skin is crispy, turn it over and continue cooking for a few seconds.
