  1. Divide the beans equally between four shallow soup bowls.
  2. Coat both sides of fish fillets with nonstick cooking spray; season with salt and pepper. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook fish 3 minutes on each side or until it flakes easily with a fork. Place on top of the beans.
  3. Combine the tomatoes, olives, and rosemary, if desired, in the skillet. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat. Spoon over the fish and sprinkle with parsley and feta.
