Roasted Cod With Tangerine Sauce Food

BAKED COD RECIPE WITH LEMON AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Mix together the lemon juice, olive oil, and melted butter in a shallow bowl (do not add the garlic yet). Set aside.
• In another shallow bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, spices, salt and pepper. Set next to the lemon sauce.
• Pat the fish dry. Dip the fish in the lemon sauce then dip it in the flour mixture. Shake off excess flour. Reserve the lemon sauce for later.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a cast iron skillet (or an oven-safe pan) over medium-high heat (watch the oil to be sure it is shimmering but not smoking). Add the fish and sear on each side to give it some color, but do not fully cook (about 2 minutes on each side). Remove the skillet from heat.
• To the remaining lemon sauce, add the minced garlic and mix. Drizzle all over the fish fillets.
• Bake in the heated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork (10 minutes should do it, but begin checking earlier). Remove from the heat and sprinkle chopped parsley. Serve immediately.

OVEN-ROASTED COD CRUSTED WITH HERBS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place bread crumbs in a shallow dish. Pile parsley, garlic, lemon zest, and a little coarse salt on the cutting board. Finely chop the lemon-garlic mixture, then combine with plain bread crumbs.
• Brush the top of each fillet with olive oil and dip in to the bread crumb herb mixture. Brush a little bit of olive oil in the bottom of a baking pan then place fillet in the pan, crust side up. Roast fillets in oven until firm to the touch, about 12 to 15 minutes.

SEARED COD WITH CHIVE BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place the fillets on a sheet tray or rack so the fish can release its natural juices.
• Place the bread crumbs into a shallow dish. In a separate shallow dish add 2 beaten eggs. Season both sides of the fillet with salt and pepper. Once seasoned, brush the belly side of the cod with the egg. Dip the egg side into the bread crumbs.
• In a cast iron skillet add grapeseed oil. Before placing fish into pan, make sure the skillet is very hot. Sear only 1 side of the fish (the side with the bread crumbs). Once 1 side is seared, place the skillet in the oven for about 3 to 4 minutes until cooked.
• Once the fish is cooked, flip it over and add the lemon juice, butter and sprig of thyme. Let melt and baste the fish with the juice.
• Pour over the Butter Sauce and serve.
• In saucepan, add wine, sprigs of thyme, shallot and garlic. Set on back burner to allow the wine to reduce. Once the sauce is reduced to a syrup, strain and add the heavy cream, and lemon juice and bring to a slight simmer.
• Whisk in cold butter and once melted add the fresh chives and season with black pepper.

RED-COOKED FISH WITH TANGERINE PEEL

Steps:

• Soak the tangerine or citrus peel for 20 minutes in warm water or until it is soft. Rinse under running water, squeeze out any excess liquid, finely chop, and set aside.
• Make three or four slashes on each side of the fish to help it cook faster and allow the flavors to permeate. Rub the fish on both sides with the salt. Evenly coat each side of the fish with the cornstarch.
• Heat a wok or deep saute pan until it is hot. Add the oil, and when it is hot, deep-fry the fish on each side for 5 to 8 minutes until it is brown and crispy. (If the head or tail is not submerged in the oil, regularly ladle some of the oil over the exposed parts.) Remove the fish, and drain on paper towels.
• Pour off most of the oil, leaving 2 tablespoons, and reheat the wok. Add the chopped tangerine peel, garlic, ginger, and scallions and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Put in the rest of the ingredients. Return the fish to the wok, spooning the ingredients over the top of the fish. Cover the wok, and cook over low heat for 8 minutes. When the fish is cooked, carefully remove it to a serving platter, and serve at once.

FAST AND EASY TANGERINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Put 1 cup of tangerine juice in sauce pan along with lemon juice, butter, and salt.
• Put pan on low heat.
• You want to heat up the mixture without boiling it.
• The butter should be completely melted and sauce steaming.
• While the main ingredients are heating up, mix the remaining 1/2 cup of tangerine juice with the corn starch and mix until smooth.
• Once the sauce is steaming slowly whisk the corn starch mixture into the pan.
• Keep whisking until sauce thickens.
• Once sauce has thickened, remove from heat and serve over you favorite steamed vegetables (it is excellent over broccoli), fish, or chicken.

VIETNAMESE TANGERINE DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine garlic, jalapeno, sugar, and the juices in the blender and liquefy. Add the vinegar, fish sauce and mirin. Blend for 5 seconds.
• Can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator.
• * A dried pequin pepper can be used if red jalapenos are out of season.

ROASTED COD WITH TANGERINE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees; if you have a baking stone, use it. Finely grate the zest of the tangerines, without grating any of the bitter white part. (On a good grater, you should be able to get away with one swipe per section of skin, rather than rubbing over and over.) Set aside. Juice the tangerines, and measure 1 1/4 cups of the juice. Set the juice in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring to a boil and reduce, stirring occasionally, to about 1/2 cup; this will take at least 10 minutes.
• Place a large ovenproof skillet, preferably nonstick, over high heat, and add the tablespoon of olive oil. If necessary, cut the cod into serving pieces so it will fit into the skillet. When the oil smokes, pour out any excess. (You need only a film.) Add the fish and put the skillet in the oven; set a timer for 6 minutes.
• The fish is done when it offers little or no resistance when a thin-bladed knife passes through it and when the flesh is opaque, or nearly so, throughout. Unless unusually thick, it will be done in about 8 minutes.
• While the fish is cooking, season the tangerine sauce with salt and cayenne; it should have something of a bite. Add the coriander, if you choose. Whisk in the butter or oil a little at a time, until the sauce is smooth and thick. Taste, adjust seasoning and add the grated zest; cook 15 seconds longer. Serve the fish with the sauce spooned over it, and garnish with the herb.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH TANGERINES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pat chicken dry; arrange pieces, skin side up, in a roasting pan or on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Add tangerines and olives to pan. Roast 30 minutes.
• In a small bowl, whisk together tangerine juice and honey. Remove pan from oven, brush chicken with tangerine-juice mixture, and return to oven. Roast until chicken is golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Serve chicken with tangerines and olives.

TANGERINE-CRANBERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir cranberries, confectioners' sugar, tangerine juice, tangerine zest, and cinnamon together in a non-stick saucepan over medium heat; bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until the cranberries pop and the mixture thickens, 15 to 20 minutes. Crush any remaining whole cranberries against the sides of the saucepan with a spatula to burst.

SOLE-WRAPPED ASPARAGUS WITH TANGERINE BEURRE BLANC

Steps:

• Prepare fish:
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 450°F.
• Brush a 13- by 9-inch roasting pan with some of melted butter, then sprinkle shallot and zest in pan.
• Trim asparagus to about 7 inches long, then peel spears starting from 2 inches below tip of each.
• Arrange fish fillets, skinned sides up, on a work surface and season with salt and pepper. Lay 5 or 6 asparagus perpendicularly across 1 fillet and wrap fish around them to make a bundle. Repeat with remaining fillets and asparagus. Transfer bundles, seam sides down, to roasting pan and brush fish with remaining melted butter. Season with salt and pepper, then add water to pan. Cover pan tightly with foil and bake until fish is just cooked through and asparagus is crisp-tender, about 20 minutes.
• Make beurre blanc while fish bakes:
• Boil tangerine juice with shallot in a 2-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat until reduced to about 2 tablespoons, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to moderately low, then whisk in 1 tablespoon butter, whisking constantly. Add remaining butter, 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking constantly, adding each piece before previous one has completely melted, and lifting pan from heat occasionally to cool mixture. Remove from heat and stir in salt, cayenne, and lemon juice.
• Transfer fish with a slotted spatula to a platter and reserve pan juices. Cover fish with foil. Discard zest, then pour pan juices into a 10-inch skillet and boil over moderately high heat until reduced to about 2 tablespoons, about 2 minutes. Gradually whisk into beurre blanc.
• Blot any liquid accumulated on platter with paper towels, then spoon sauce over fish.
