Baked Cod With Feta And Tomatoes Food

BAKED COD WITH TOMATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the fish in a large colander and rinse under cold running water. Place in a large non-reactive baking dish, and make 5 horizontal 3-inch slits on each side. Season the fish on both sides with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 3 teaspoons kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
• In a mixing bowl, toss together the sliced tomatoes, onions, garlic, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside until needed.
• Place the fish, skin side down, in a roasting pan. Thickly coat the top side of the fish with the olive spread. Layer the tomatoes and cilantro flat on top of the tapenade like scales, then top with the onions and garlic. Place the fish in the oven and bake until the juices run clear and the onions are beginning to crisp and slightly blacken along the edges, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the fish from the oven and let rest for 15 minutes. Place the fish on a platter and serve, garnished with cilantro sprigs.
• In the bowl of a food processor, combine all the ingredients and puree. Transfer to a bowl. Cover and set aside until needed, or refrigerate for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

BAKED COD WITH SPINACH, FETA AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Spray a foil-lined sheet tray with non-stick cooking spray.
• Check the cod for pin bones by running your fingers over the top one way then the other. If you find any, remove with tweezers.
• Place the cod face up in the prepared pan. The bottom of the fish is where the skin was attached and is darker than the white top. Sprinkle on the salt and pepper.
• In a large saute pan, heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat and once hot, add the shallots and cook for three minutes until soft and lightly browned.
• Add the garlic and tomatoes along with the thyme, oregano and nutmeg and cook for three more minutes.
• Add the spinach and cook until the spinach is wilted, about two more minutes.
• Spread the vegetable mixture over the fish and top with the crumbled feta cheese and bake uncovered until the fish is cooked and begins to flake, about 20 minutes.
• Place under the broiler for two minutes to slightly brown the top of the feta. This gives it a nice crunchy and chewy texture.
• Remove and serve with a little olive oil drizzled over each serving along with a lemon wedge on the side.

• Place 2 tomato slices on each fish fillet.
• Pour Italian Dressing over fish and tomatoes; season with salt and pepper.
• Bake 350 degrees for 20 minutes; then top with Feta Cheese and bake another 6-8 minutes, depending on thickness of fish.
• Optional: If you like olives, sprinkle them on top at the same time as the Feta Cheese.

BAKED FETA WITH BURST TOMATOES & CHILLI HONEY

• In a jug, whisk the olive oil with the garlic, chopped herbs, honey and some seasoning, then drizzle over the tomatoes and feta. Bake for 35-40 mins until the tomatoes have burst, and the feta is soft and lightly golden. Drizzle with a little extra chilli fusion honey and olive oil to serve, alongside some crusty bread and a green salad.
