Fillet of Cod with Asparagus and Prosciutto image

Categories     Bake     Quick & Easy     Lemon     Cod     Asparagus     Prosciutto     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds slender asparagus spears, trimmed to 7-inch lengths
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 tablespoon plus 6 teaspoons olive oil
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 6-ounce cod fillets, pinbones removed
6 ounces paper-thin prosciutto slices, halved lengthwise

Steps:

  • Cook asparagus in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Drain. Transfer to bowl of ice water to cool. Drain well.
  • Mash garlic and 1 teaspoon salt to paste in small bowl. Melt butter with 1 tablespoon oil in small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add garlic paste; stir until pale golden, about 1 minute. Stir in lemon juice, peel, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Remove from heat.
  • Preheat oven to 500°F. Cut out six 12-inch squares of parchment paper. Place 1 parchment square on work surface. Drizzle 1 teaspoon oil over parchment. Place 1 cod fillet in center of parchment. Spoon 1/6 of garlic-lemon mixture over fish. Cover with 1/6 of asparagus spears. Arrange 1/6 of prosciutto slices over. Fold 2 opposite sides of parchment in over fish and vegetables, then fold in remaining 2 sides, enclosing completely. Fasten parchment edges together with paper clips to seal packet. Place on large rimmed baking sheet. Repeat procedure with remaining parchment, oil, fish, garlic-lemon mixture, asparagus, and prosciutto. (Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Refrigerate.)
  • Bake fish until just opaque in center (parchment will turn golden brown), about 12 minutes. Transfer 1 parchment packet to each of 6 plates. Open parchment packets and serve.

Tips:

  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet to prevent the fish from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet, or the fish will not cook evenly.
  • Sear the fish for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is golden brown and opaque in the center.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the fish for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until it is cooked through.
  • Serve the fish immediately, topped with the lemon-butter sauce and asparagus.

Conclusion:

Baked Cod Piccata with Asparagus is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is tender and flaky, the sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the asparagus is crisp-tender. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
