CRUNCHY PECORINO BAKED COD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place cod fillets on a paper towel. Place another paper towel over top, and press until fillets are thoroughly dried. Season both sides of each fillet with salt and pepper and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Mix together bread crumbs, Pecorino Romano cheese, mayonnaise, butter, oregano, thyme, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl until well combined. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Spread a generous amount of topping over each cod fillet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes. Switch to broil and broil until topping is browned and cod flakes easily with a fork, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

ROMAN-STYLE FISH SOUP (ZUPPA DI PESCE ALLA ROMANA)

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium heat, sauté the garlic and pepper flakes in the olive oil until the garlic is golden, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the garlic and discard. Add the squid and cook and stir until opaque, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and simmer for 1 minute longer. Add the tomatoes, parsley, and salt and cook until the juices evaporate, about 10 minutes longer.
• Add the water and bring to a simmer. Add the clams (discard any that do not close to the touch) and fish, cover, and cook until all the clams open and the fish is opaque throughout, about 5 minutes. Discard any clams that failed to open. Adjust the seasonings.
• Place a bread slice in each warmed soup plate. Ladle the soup over the bread and serve.

FISH ROMANO RECIPE

• In a large plastic, zipper topped bag, combine first four ingredients. Add fish, seal bag and marinate in refrigerator for 30 minutes, turning bag occasionally. Meanwhile, combine flour and next 3 ingredients in another large plastic zipper topped bag. Remove fish from marinade (discard marinade) and add them to the flour bag, close bag and shake to coat evenly with flour mixture. In a skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Add fish and cook 6 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Serve with lemon wedges.
