Categories     Seafood     Fish

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon butter
1 cup thinly sliced onion
2 (10 ounce) packages chopped frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ pounds haddock fillets
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced Italian plum tomatoes, juices reserved
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon dried tarragon
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 teaspoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 2-quart casserole or baking dish large enough to hold haddock fillets in a single layer.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the onion slices, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in spinach and nutmeg and cook for about 3 minutes.
  • Arrange haddock fillets in baking dish. Spoon equal portions of the spinach mixture between the fillets. Spoon drained tomatoes around fillets and sprinkle with the thyme, tarragon and salt.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 20 to 25 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
  • While fish is baking, make the sauce. If necessary add enough water to reserved tomato liquid to make 1 cup. In the skillet, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Stir in the minced onion and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add 3/4 cup of the tomato juice to the onions. Bring mixture to a boil. Whisk the cornstarch into the remaining 1/4 cup juice, then add to the skillet. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring, until sauce thickens slightly. Pour sauce over baked fillets and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Fish: Opt for fresh or thawed haddock or cod fillets for the best flavor and texture. Ensure the fish is firm and white, with no signs of spoilage.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Season the fish fillets liberally with salt, pepper, and herbs like paprika, thyme, or oregano. This enhances the natural flavor of the fish.
  • Steam or Bake, Not Fry: To keep the dish healthy and flavorful, steam or bake the fish instead of frying it. Steaming preserves the nutrients and moisture, while baking creates a crispy crust.
  • Use Quality Spinach: Fresh baby spinach is preferred for its tender texture and mild flavor. If using frozen spinach, thaw and squeeze out excess water before adding it to the recipe.
  • Don't Overcook the Fish: Keep an eye on the cooking time to prevent overcooking. Fish is best when cooked just until it flakes easily with a fork.

Conclusion:

Haddock and spinach bake is a versatile and delicious dish that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It's a great way to incorporate more fish and vegetables into your diet. With its simple preparation and minimal ingredients, this recipe is perfect for busy weeknights or when you're short on time.
