POACHED COD IN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• If you're using frozen fillets, thaw the fish overnight in the refrigerator. Don't be frustrated if the fillets aren't completely thawed by dinnertime; simply place the cod packets in a bowl and run cool water on them. Let the fillets sit in the water for 10-15 minutes, and they should be ready to go. (Obviously, you can skip this step if you're using fresh cod.)
• Blot the fish with paper towels and sprinkle both sides with salt.
• Grab a skillet with a lid, and pour in about two cups of marinara sauce or salsa. The skillet should be large enough to fit the fillets snugly in a single layer. If you're poaching four fillets, a 10-inch skillet works great.
• Crank the heat up to high to bring the sauce to a boil. When the sauce is bubbling, carefully slip in the seasoned fillets.
• Lower the heat to about medium-low-enough to maintain a simmer.
• Then, cover the pan and cook for 5 to 8 minutes or until the fish is opaque and cooked to your preferred doneness. Once the thickest part of the fish reaches 130°-140°F on an instant-read thermometer, I take the pan off the heat. (I know the FDA says 145°F is the safe temperature for cooked fish, but for my tastes, that's overdone. Instead, I refer to this chart for fish cooking times.)
• Top the fish with freshly cracked black pepper and a shower of fresh herbs. (I like to garnish the cod with Italian parsley, basil, and chives when I poach in marinara sauce, and cilantro and green onions when I poach in salsa.)
• Serve the saucy fish with a giant green salad, a big platter of roasted vegetables, or cauliflower rice.

SALT COD IN TOMATO SAUCE
