2 T olive oil
4 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
4 cod fillets (5 to 6 oz)
1/4 c white wine

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.

ROAST COD WITH LEEKS, PLUM TOMATOES, AND WILTED SPINACH



Roast Cod with Leeks, Plum Tomatoes, and Wilted Spinach image

Thick, meaty cuts of fish, like cod, are best for roasting because they hold up well in the heat of the oven.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger, with juices
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
5 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
2 pounds leeks, trimmed, cut across into 3/4-inch rings, and washed
2 pounds plum tomatoes, quartered into wedges
6 five to six-ounce cod fillets, or steaks, skin on, 1 to 1 1/4 inches at thickest point
Salt to taste
1 pound fresh spinach, well washed
Olive-oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees with two racks centered. Spray two 12-by-14-inch roasting or jelly-roll pans with cooking spray. In a small bowl, combine ginger, soy sauce, lime juice, olive oil, and pepper. Set aside.
  • Arrange leeks and tomatoes in one pan, and cod (if using fillets, place skin-side down) in the second pan. Brush all liberally with ginger marinade. Sprinkle all with salt and pepper. Cook 10 minutes. Turn vegetables with a spatula for even browning; brush all again with marinade. Continue to cook until cod is opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes more. Transfer cod to a serving plate; keep warm. Continue to cook tomatoes and leeks until tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Add spinach to pan; cook just long enough to wilt, about 5 minutes. To serve, arrange spinach on each plate. Add 1 cod fillet; divide tomato-leek mixture evenly between plates. Serve hot.

BACON-WRAPPED COD



Bacon-Wrapped Cod image

Provided by Susan Herrmann Loomis

Categories     Fish     Pork     Dinner     Sugar Conscious     Paleo     Dairy Free     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added

Yield Makes 2 generous servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound (500g) fresh cod fillet
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 ounces (90g) thinly sliced slab bacon, rind removed
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
For the sauce:
1/2 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 shallot
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons capers

Steps:

  • 1. Season the cod all over lightly with salt and pepper. Roll or fold the cod so that it looks like a small roast, and wrap the bacon around it, securing the pieces of bacon with a skewer or toothpick, so the cod is almost completely covered with the bacon (except at the "corners").
  • 2. In a heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the fish and brown it on all sides, which will take about 6 minutes. Cover the skillet and continue cooking the cod until it is cooked through, about 16 minutes, turning it occasionally so it doesn't burn.
  • 3. While the cod is cooking, make the sauce. Mince together the parsley and the shallot and place in a small bowl. Whisk in the oil. Coarsely chop the capers and whisk them into the sauce.
  • 4. When the fish is cooked, transfer it to a warmed serving platter and let it sit for about 4 minutes. Remove the skewers or the toothpicks and drain away any liquid that comes from the fish. Pour the sauce over the fish and serve.

This dish was inspired by papet vaudois, a typical dish from the French-speaking part of Switzerland, which has a big fat sausage on the top instead of cod steaks and no bacon. I haven't tried this yet but wanted to save here for safekeeping. I got this from www.jill.net

COD WITH LEEKS AND TOMATOES



Cod With Leeks and Tomatoes image

Cod is a lean fish that is available year-round and can be baked, broiled, or poached. Its mild taste pairs well with sharp flavors, such as lemon.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Seafood Recipes

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium leeks, white and light-green parts only, thinly sliced, rinsed well, and patted dry
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon freshly grated lemon zest
3 sprigs thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and fresh ground pepper
2 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes (about 12 ounces)
4 cod fillets, each 6 to 8 ounces and 3/4 to 1 inch thick

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. In a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, toss together leeks, lemon juice, oil, lemon zest, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cover with foil, and bake until leeks just begin to soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove baking dish from oven. Add tomatoes, and toss to combine. Season both sides of cod fillets with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; place on top of vegetables.
  • Cover dish and bake until fish is opaque throughout, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the freshest cod possible. Fresh cod should be firm to the touch and have a mild, briny smell.
  • Cook the cod until it is just opaque. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
  • Use good quality bacon. Thick-cut bacon will add more flavor to the dish.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you crowd the pan, the fish will not cook evenly.
  • Serve the cod immediately. This dish is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Roasted cod with bacon and leeks is a simple yet delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like your fish cooked well-done or prefer it still slightly pink in the center, this recipe is sure to please.
