Roasted Fish With Romesco Salsa image

Spanish romesco sauce is made by blending roasted red peppers, tomatoes, almonds, garlic, parsley and breadcrumbs into a smooth and smoky sauce. In this zippy weeknight recipe, the same ingredients are roughly diced to form a chunky and tangy salsa that's spooned over simply roasted fish. Good-quality red wine vinegar can be substituted for sherry in a pinch. The bread and almonds are added to the salsa at the last minute so they retain a bit of their crunch. Serve this dish with sautéed greens drizzled with olive oil, and couscous or rice if you want more a little more heft.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium tomato, cored, seeded and cut into small dice
1/2 cup (drained) jarred roasted red peppers, cut into small dice
1 garlic clove, finely grated
Pinch of smoked or sweet paprika
2 teaspoons sherry vinegar (or good-quality red wine vinegar)
Olive oil, as needed
1/2 packed cup coarsely torn pieces of bread (about 1 ounce)
1/4 cup raw almonds, coarsely chopped
4 (6-ounce) skinless mild white fish fillets, such as cod or halibut
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Coarse sea salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a medium bowl, toss the tomato, peppers, garlic, paprika, vinegar and 1 tablespoon olive oil; set aside.
  • In a small skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high. When the oil is hot, add the torn bread and cook, tossing often, for 3 to 5 minutes, until toasted and golden brown. Transfer to a cutting board to cool, then coarsely chop the bread into pieces.
  • Carefully wipe out any crumbs from the pan with a paper towel, then add a splash of olive oil. Add the almonds and toast over medium heat, tossing occasionally, for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Transfer to the board with the bread and set aside to cool.
  • Pat the fish dry with a paper towel and place on a sheet pan or in a baking dish. Brush all over with olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Roast until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add the bread, almonds and parsley to the tomato salsa and toss well. Spoon over the fish fillets, sprinkle with coarse sea salt and serve immediately.

This recipe was a great way to use up some leftover fish. I had some salmon that I needed to use up, and this recipe was the perfect way to do it.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my romesco salsa turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much olive oil.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more spices to the romesco salsa.

The romesco salsa was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding a little bit of sour cream. It was still very flavorful, and it paired well with the fish.

The roasted fish was cooked to perfection. It was flaky and moist, and it had a delicious crispy skin.
