Cod With Tomatoes Olives And Capers Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oil in a Dutch oven or deep skillet over medium high heat. Add garlic and onion and saute, stirring until the onions begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add oregano and thyme, stir. Add tomatoes, olive, capers and about half the parsley. Simmer until tomatoes cook down to a chunky sauce.
• Sprinkle fish with salt on both sides. Push some of the sauce to one side of the pan and spread the rest thinly over the bottom of the pan. Place the fish on top of the sauce in the bottom of the pan and cover with the sauce that you previously pushed aside. Cover the pan and simmer over medium heat until the fish is opaque and flakes easily, about 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle the remaining parsley over the fish and serve.

Steps:

• In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of oil over a medium-high heat. Add fish and cook until opaque in the center, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a platter and tent with foil to keep the fish warm.
• Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons of oil in the same skillet; add onion and saute for 2 minutes. Add the wine and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the tomatoes, olives and capers and crushed red pepper, if using, and cook for 3 minutes more. Stir in the spinach and cook until it is wilted, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon the sauce over the fish and serve.

Steps:

• 1. In a deep-sided skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Saute onions, stirring occasionally, until they being to soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in oregano, thyme, tomatoes, olives, capers and half the parsley. Simmer until tomatoes break down and you are left with a chunky sauce 10 to 15 minutes.
• 2. Season fish with salt on both sides. Push the sauce to one side so that you have a thin layer of sauce on the other. Lay your fish over the thin sauce side and then cover the fish with all the sauce. Place the cover over the pan and simmer until the fish flakes easily with a fork and is opaque, about 10 minutes.
• 3. Garnish fish with the remaining parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Rub the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper; place skin-side down in the dish.
• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 30 seconds. Add 1/2 teaspoon oregano and the bay leaves and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes, olives, capers and a pinch of salt and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
• Pour the tomato mixture all over the fish. Bake until the fish is cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a steady simmer and cook until very tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon oregano; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the fish among plates. Spoon the tomato mixture over the top and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Serve with the potatoes.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the tomatoes, shallots and garlic in a 9-by-13-inch nonreactive baking dish. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. Pour over the tomatoes and toss to combine. Roast until the tomatoes have collapsed and the shallots are translucent, about 15 minutes.
• While the tomatoes roast, pat the fish dry with paper towels, brush all over with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Toss the tomatoes, move them to the sides of the dish and place the fish fillets, evenly spaced, in the center. Roast until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Sprinkle the entire dish with the lemon zest, basil and mint. Serve the fish with the tomatoes, spooning any remaining juices on top.

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine cod with water to cover by 2 inches. Cover and refrigerate, changing water 3 times a day, 1 to 3 days (see cooks' note, below). Refrigerate until ready to use.
• In small bowl, combine capers with water to cover by 1 inch. Cover and refrigerate 1 day, changing water 3 times.
• Drain and rinse capers, then squeeze dry. Drain cod and pat dry, then cut into 4- by 2-inch pieces.
• In heavy 6- to 8-quart pot over moderate heat, heat 3 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add onion and sauté until softened and golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add red pepper flakes, capers, tomatoes and juice, and salt. Using wooden spoon, gently crush tomatoes. Bring to simmer, then carefully add cod. Add parsley and 1/4 cup mint and gently spoon some of sauce over cod. Simmer, uncovered, until cod is tender and heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Using slotted spatula, transfer cod to serving platter. Remove pot from heat and stir in 3 tablespoons olive oil. Spoon sauce over fish, then sprinkle with remaining 1 tablespoon mint and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to fan 180C/conventional 200C/gas 6. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil from the olives in an ovenproof pan. Tip in the onion and stir well, leave to cook for a minute or two and then give it another good stir. Add the tomatoes and some salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, then add the olives.
• Put the fish, skin side down, onto the sauce and drizzle over a splash more oil from the olive jar. Bake, uncovered, for 15 minutes until the fish is cooked. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve straight from the pan, with lemon wedges for squeezing over.
