Yield Serves 4 with enough for the cannelloni

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound (about 3) onions, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices
3 large garlic cloves
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 pound (about 2 large) boiling potatoes
3/4 cup Kalamata or other brine-cured black olives
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, crumbled
1/4 cup minced fresh parsley leaves
a 2 1/2-pound piece of center-cut cod fillet

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F. In a large skillet cook the onions and the garlic in the olive oil over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture is pale golden. While the onion mixture is cooking, in another large skillet heat the vegetable oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking and in it sauté the potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices, in batches, turning them, for 5 to 8 minutes, or until they are pale golden, transferring them as they are cooked to a bowl. Add the onion mixture to the potatoes with the olives, the rosemary, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste and combine the mixture well.
  • Put the cod in the center of a large shallow baking dish, season it with salt and pepper, and arrange the potato mixture around it. Roast the mixture in the middle of the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the fish just flakes. Flake 2 cups of the cod and reserve it, covered and chilled, for making the cod cannelloni.

Delicious! This dish was a hit with my guests. The cod was cooked to perfection and the vegetables were flavorful and tender. I especially loved the crispy skin on the cod. I will definitely be making this dish again.
