Sprinkle with the remaining parsley and serve immediately.

SMOTHERED MUSHROOMS AND KALE

Steps:

• Heat a medium skillet with extra-virgin olive oil and butter over medium to medium-high heat. When fat is hot, add garlic and mushrooms and place a lid which is too small for the skillet down into the pan, pressing and smothering the mushrooms. Cook 7 to 8 minutes, stirring once, then wilt the kale into the pan, turning it with tongs to combine with mushrooms. Smother the greens for 1 to 2 minutes, then deglaze the pan with Marsala and season the mixture with salt and pepper, to taste.

• Make fish:
• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and chopped shallots. Sauté until liquid evaporates and mushrooms begin to brown, about 8 minutes. Cool completely.
• Using electric mixer, beat 5 tablespoons butter in large bowl until light. Beat in egg, then parsley, 1 tablespoon thyme, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Mix in breadcrumbs and mushroom mixture.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Sprinkle sliced garlic, sliced shallots and remaining 1 teaspoon thyme over bottom of 15 x 10 x 2-inch glass baking dish. Add fish stock, then fish fillets. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper. Spoon breadcrumb mixture atop fish, covering tops of fish completely and pressing slightly to adhere. (Can be prepared 8 hours ahead. Cover tomato compote and fish separately and refrigerate. Rewarm compote over medium-low heat before serving.)
• Bake fish until opaque in center, about 15 minutes. Transfer to broiler. Broil just until topping is crisp and golden, about 1 minute.
• Using slotted spatula, transfer fish to plates. Transfer cooking liquid to another medium skillet. Bring cooking liquid to simmer over medium heat. Add remaining 1 tablespoon butter and whisk just until melted and well blended. Season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce around fish. Spoon dollop of tomato compote alongside and serve fish immediately.

Sprinkle with lemon-pepper, steak seasoning and bread crumbs. Top with mushroom mixture. Divide remaining butter and place on each fillet., Cover and bake at 400° for 10 minutes.

SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS IN MUSHROOM GRAVY

Steps:

• Combine flour with salt and pepper to taste in a zip top bag. Dredge pork chops and shake off excess flour.
• Heat olive oil, and sear pork for 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove from pan and place on a plate to rest.
• Deglaze the pan with wine and scrape up any brown bits at the bottom. Add remaining ingredients and bring to a simmer. Return pork to pan with any accumulated juices.
• If the gravy is too thin, you can add a small amount of the dredging flour to thicken.
• Simmer until gravy has reduced.

BAKED COD OR OTHER FILLETS WITH DRIED MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F. Soak the mushrooms in the stock until softened, about 10 minutes. Trim any hard parts and chop roughly. Pour the soaking liquid through a cheesecloth-lined strainer.
• Use about half the butter to grease a baking dish just large enough to hold the fish. Add the shallot, then the fish; sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper. Cover lightly with foil and bake for about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the mushrooms, sour cream, and enough of the soaking liquid to make a thin sauce. Pour this over and around the fish, re-cover the pan, and continue to bake until the fish is done (a thin-bladed knife inserted into its center will meet little resistance), 5 to 10 minutes more. Serve hot.
