Best 4 White Wine Poached Cod Recipes

COD WITH HERBED WHITE-WINE LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine shallot, wine, and lemon juice in a small skillet; set over high heat. Bring to a boil; simmer until liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; whisk in butter, capers, 1/4 teaspoon salt, a pinch of pepper, and 3/4 of the herbs. Set aside; keep warm.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add 3 tablespoons sauce. Season both sides of fillets with remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Arrange fillets and lemon slices in skillet; sprinkle with some herbs. Cook until fillets are golden, about 4 minutes. Turn, sprinkle with remaining herbs, and cook until fish is cooked through, about 3 minutes. Serve with lemon slices and remaining sauce.

COD IN TOMATOES WITH WINE

Steps:

• Slice an 'X' in the bottom of each tomato. Bring a pot of water to a boil; boil tomatoes for 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place in a bowl of iced water for 1 minute. Peel tomatoes, starting from the 'X' side; chop.
• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over low heat; cook and stir onion and garlic until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add chile pepper and tomatoes; cook and stir until tomatoes begin reduce, 5 to 8 minutes. Pour in wine; cook over medium heat until wine reduces slightly, about 5 more minutes. Stir in salt, black pepper, basil, and parsley.
• Place cod loins into tomato mixture; cover and cook for 5 minutes. Turn cod and cook other side until fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 5 minutes. Add prawns; cover and cook until prawns are bright pink on the outside and the meat is no longer transparent in the center, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

WHITE WINE POACHED COD

Steps:

• Saute the garlic in the olive oil until it starts to turn light tan in color.
• Add the white wine and bring to a boil.
• Salt and pepper the fish to taste.
• Carefully slide the fish in the pan of boiling wine skin side down, when it appears as though it is starting to flake, gently flip it to cook the other side. If you prefer you can double the wine and poach the fish without flipping, providing the fish is covered with enough wine.
• When the fish is cooked remove and add the lemon and capers.
• Reduce the wine and add the butter, top the fish with the sauce and enjoy!

ROASTED COD AND TOMATOES WITH BASIL AND WHITE WINE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F
• In a baking dish large enough to eventually accomodate the cod fillets, place the tomatoes in a single layer. Drizzle 1/2 of the olive oil over the tomatoes and sprinkle with kosher salt. Roast the tomatoes until they are very soft, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the tomatoes from the oven and decrease temperature to 350°F Place tomatoes in a small bowl, add the garlic and basil, toss to combine well and set aside.
• Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper and drizzle remaining olive oil over the fillets. Place the cod in the baking dish the tomatoes were roasted in and pour wine and tomato mixture over the fish. Cover the dish with foil and bake the fish until just cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish. Serve immediately.
