Place the tilapia fillets on a parchment lined sheet pan and liberally rub them with the paprika on both sides. Then sprinkle them with a pinch of kosher salt and ground black pepper.
Preheat your oven to 350 F. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to an oven proof pan over medium heat. Once the pan starts to lightly smoke add the fish to the pan. Sear for 2 minutes then gently flip. Sear another 2 minutes then remove and set aside.
Add 1 cup of dry white wine to the pan to deglaze it. Scrape up any bits off the bottom of the pan. Simmer 3-4 minutes so the alcohol cooks off.
Next add in the olives. Let these cook for 2-3 minutes. Add in the salsa, sofrito, smoked paprika and cayenne. Mix to incorporate all the ingredients. Bring this to a low simmer and cook for 5-6 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Nestle the fish into the sauce and place in the oven. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until a knife can be easily inserted into the thickest part of the fish.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Serve over a bed of white rice or with some crusty bread on the side.
