COD ROASTED WITH BACON AND LEEKS RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425. Split the leeks lengthwise and wash them under cool water to remove the grit. Slice the leeks in half-moon slices and transfer to a bowl filled with cold water.

Add the leeks and the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan and toss with the bacon fat. Season with salt and pepper. Put in a 9 x 13 pan and roast the leeks for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven. Season cod with salt and pepper. Add the wine, stock, and thyme to the pan. Set the cod on top and roast for 10 to 12 minutes or until fish is cooked through. To serve put the cod on plates and spoon the leeks and juice over and top with bacon.
