Cod With Roasted Tomatoes And Summer Squash Food

MEDITERRANEAN COD WITH ROASTED TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels. In a small bowl combine snipped oregano, snipped thyme, salt, garlic powder, paprika and black pepper. Sprinkle half of the oregano mixture over both sides of each fish fillet.
• Line a 15x10x1-inch baking pan with foil. Coat foil with cooking spray. Place fish on one side of the foil-lined pan. Add tomatoes and garlic slices to the other side of the foil-lined pan. Combine remaining oregano mixture with oil. Drizzle oil mixture over tomatoes; toss to coat. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, stirring tomato mixture once. Stir olives and capers into cooked tomato mixture.
• Divide fish and roasted tomato mixture evenly among four serving plates. Garnish with fresh oregano and/or thyme leaves.

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.

FISH FILLETS WITH TOMATOES, SQUASH, AND BASIL

Steps:

• Place four 14x12" sheets of parchment paper, or heavy-duty foil if grilling, on a work surface. Divide squash among parchment sheets, arranging on one side of sheet in thin layers. Sprinkle shallots and sliced basil over, dividing equally. Scatter tomato halves around squash. Drizzle each packet with 1 tablespoons wine and 1/2 tablespoon oil (add 1/2 tablespoon water to each if grilling). Season with salt and pepper. Place a fish fillet atop each portion. Season with salt and pepper; drizzle 1/2 tablespoon oil over each.
• Fold parchment over mixture and crimp edges tightly to form a sealed packet. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Chill. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before continuing.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. Place packets in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Alternatively, build a medium fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to medium-high. Bake or grill fish until just cooked through (a toothpick poked through the parchment will slide through fish easily), about 10 minutes. Carefully cut open packets (steam will escape). Garnish with basil leaves.

ONE-PAN ROASTED FISH WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the tomatoes, shallots and garlic in a 9-by-13-inch nonreactive baking dish. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. Pour over the tomatoes and toss to combine. Roast until the tomatoes have collapsed and the shallots are translucent, about 15 minutes.
• While the tomatoes roast, pat the fish dry with paper towels, brush all over with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Toss the tomatoes, move them to the sides of the dish and place the fish fillets, evenly spaced, in the center. Roast until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Sprinkle the entire dish with the lemon zest, basil and mint. Serve the fish with the tomatoes, spooning any remaining juices on top.

ALASKAN COD AND SHRIMP WITH FRESH TOMATO

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; cook and stir the garlic in the oil until golden brown, taking care not to burn the garlic. Add the tomatoes and mix well until they release their juices. Stir in 1 teaspoon oregano.
• Place the cod and shrimp on the tomato mixture; season with salt. Cover skillet and simmer 3 minutes. Flip the cod and season again with salt and 1 tablespoon oregano; re-cover and cook another 3 minutes. Remove the cover and allow to cook until the juice evaporates slightly, 2 to 3 minutes.

BAKED COD WITH SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• In a small bowl, mix together bread crumbs, Parmesan, rosemary, and 1 tablespoon of oil; set aside.
• In a large ovenproof skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat.
• Add onion and garlic and saute until onion is tender about 5-6 minutes.
• Stir in bell pepper, yellow squash, salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, five minutes or until pepper is crisp-tender.

COD WITH ROASTED TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Add the tomatoes and red onion to a bowl and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add to a greased baking sheet. Add the garlic to a square of tinfoil, drizzle with olive oil and seal. Place on the sheet tray and roast for 25 minutes, until charred and tender.
• Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Add the vegetables and garlic to a food processor along with jalapeno, cilantro and lime juice; pulse until chunky. Taste for seasoning and season with salt and pepper, if necessary.
• Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the fish and cook for 4 minutes per side. Top with the roasted salsa.

COD WITH ROASTED TOMATOES AND SUMMER SQUASH

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250°F. Set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil. Arrange on the rack, cut sides up. Bake until shriveled around the edges (but not dry), about 35 minutes. Cool, then peel and chop, reserving all of the flesh and juices.
• Raise the oven temperature to 400°F.
• Toss the squash with the chile flakes, 2 tablespoons of the oil, and a pinch of salt. Spread on a rimmed baking sheet. Roast until golden brown, about 17 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1/3 cup of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and season with salt. Cook until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the chile, rosemary, and tomatoes and their juices and simmer for 6 minutes. Fold in the roasted squash and simmer for 2 minutes longer. Keep warm.
• Heat a large ovenproof skillet over high heat until hot. Season the cod with salt and pepper and dust with Wondra. Coat the skillet with oil. When it's almost smoking, add the cod. Cook for 1 minute, then transfer to the oven. Cook until a knife pierces easily through the flesh, about 5 minutes.
• Stir together the herbs and 3 tablespoons of the oil. Season with salt. Divide the tomato-squash stew among 4 shallow bowls. Place a fillet on top and spoon the herb oil over the fish. Serve immediately.

• Wondra is a superfine flour most commonly used to thicken gravy. I find that it does wonders for getting a thin, crisp golden brown crust on fish.

BAKED FISH WITH SUMMER SQUASH

ROAST COD WITH POTATOES AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Slash the skin of the fish in a few places across the thickest part. This ensures that the fish does not curl, and cooks evenly. Sprinkle with salt.
• Mix all the chermoula ingredients in a dish, and marinate the fish in half the quantity for about 30 minutes.
• Slice the potatoes about 1/4 inch thick, and the tomatoes about 1/3 inch thick. Drizzle a bit of olive oil into a baking dish, put in the potatoes and tomatoes, and drizzle a bit more oil on top. Sprinkle with salt, then turn the vegetables so they are well seasoned and lightly coated with oil. Put the dish in a preheated 475ËšF oven for 50 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender. Turn the vegetables over once during cooking.
• Remove the vegetables from the oven and place the cod fillets (skin up) on top; place the dish back in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes more, or until fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
• Just before serving, pour the remaining half of the chermoula over the fish, letting it dribble onto the vegetables.
