COD IN SWEET AND SOUR PEPPER SAUCE



Cod in Sweet and Sour Pepper Sauce image

Vinegary sauce in which fish is marinated after cooking is sometimes referred to as escabeche. This one is inspired by a recipe in Yotam Ottolenghi's cookbook "Jerusalem." It is at once a sauce and vegetable side dish. Instead of frying the fish like Ottolenghi does, I oven-steam it, then bury it in the sauce.

Categories     dinner, main course

Time 40m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 pounds Alaskan cod fillets
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, halved and sliced across the grain
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
2 large red bell peppers, or 1 red pepper and 1 yellow pepper, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons curry powder (optional)
1 14-ounce can chopped tomatoes
2 tablespoons mild honey, such as clover
4 tablespoons sherry vinegar or cider vinegar
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper and lay on the foil. Leave at room temperature while you make the sauce.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet or casserole over medium heat and add the onion and coriander seeds. Cook, stirring often, until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes, and add the bell peppers and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the peppers and onions are soft, another 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and curry powder, if using, and stir together for a minute, until fragrant. Add the tomatoes and bay leaves and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes cook down slightly, about 8 minutes. Stir in the honey and vinegar, salt to taste and black pepper, and simmer 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place a pan of just boiled water on the floor of your oven and place the baking sheet with the fish in the oven on the middle rack. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, until the fish is opaque on the surface but still slightly firm in the middle. Remove from the oven and place in the sauce. Spoon sauce over the top so that the fish is surrounded by it. Simmer for 5 minutes, until the fish is cooked through and can be pulled apart with a fork. Remove from the heat and serve, or even better, chill overnight, then gently reheat the next day.

COD IN SWEET AND SOUR PEPPER SAUCE



Cod in Sweet and Sour Pepper Sauce image

This is even better if you make it a day ahead. The sauce, without the fish, will keep for 3 or 4 days in the refrigerator. Recipe by Martha Rose Shulman in the NYTimes (Dec. 2, 2013), inspired by Ottolenghi's "Jerusalem" cookbook. The original calls for frying the fish, this one oven-steams it, but the escabeche-like sauce makes both versions delicious! You can substitute sugar for the honey, if you prefer.

Categories     Fish     Pepper     Sauté     Steam

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ pounds Alaskan cod fillets
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 large onion, halved and sliced across the grain
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
2 large red bell peppers, or 1 red pepper and 1 yellow pepper, sliced

4 tablespoons sherry vinegar or cider vinegar
2 bay leaves

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper and lay on the foil. Leave at room temperature while you make the sauce.

Remove from the heat and serve, or even better, chill overnight, then gently reheat the next day.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cod fillets. Fresh cod has a mild, flaky texture and a slightly sweet flavor. If you can't find fresh cod, you can use frozen cod fillets, but be sure to thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Make sure the cod is cooked through. The best way to check if the cod is cooked through is to insert a fork into the thickest part of the fillet. If the fork comes out easily, the cod is cooked through.
  • Don't overcook the cod. Overcooked cod will become dry and tough. Cook the cod just until it is cooked through, then remove it from the heat.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in the sauce. This will add flavor and texture to the dish. Some good choices include bell peppers, onions, carrots, and celery.
  • Make the sauce ahead of time. This will save you time when you're ready to cook the cod. You can store the sauce in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This Alaskan cod in sweet and sour pepper sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish. It's perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. The cod is cooked to perfection and the sauce is flavorful and tangy. Serve this dish with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
