Pan Seared Cod With Basil Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the peels from the lemons, revealing the flesh. Cut the segments free from the membranes, then dice and place in a bowl. Squeeze any remaining juice from the membranes into the bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter and begin to cook, stirring, until the butter begins to brown. Add the brioche, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, continually tossing and swirling the brioche until evenly toasted, about 4 minutes. Remove the croutons to a plate and let cool. Wipe out the pan.
• Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper. Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter and the oil and begin to cook over the heat, stirring. Add the fish and cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fish and continue to cook, basting occasionally with the butter from the pan, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the fish to a plate. Wipe out the pan.
• Turn the pan to medium heat and add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Let melt, then add the capers and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Continue to cook until the butter browns, then add the wine, lemon juice and segments and parsley. Swirl together. Spoon the sauce over the fish and garnish with the croutons.

Steps:

• Combine basil, broth, cheese, oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and garlic in a small bowl.
• Sprinkle fish with 1/2 tsp salt (I omit) and pepper.
• Coat a large nonstick pan with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat.
• Saute fish for 5 minutes on each side or until it flakes easily with a fork.
• Spoon basil sauce over fish to serve.

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, combine cilantro, garlic, lemon zest and juice and season with salt and pepper. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking to incorporate all the ingredients. Taste for seasoning and adjust with salt and pepper, if necessary, and set aside.
• For the fish: Heat the olive oil in a medium nonstick skillet placed over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the cod with salt and pepper. Once the pan is hot, sear the cod for 3 to 4 minutes on the first side. Add the butter to the pan and allow it to melt. Once the butter has melted, flip the cod and finish cooking it on the other side, 3 to 4 minutes more, or until just cooked through.
• To plate: Place a spoonful of Creamed Corn onto a plate. Set a piece of fish over the corn and spoon over the cilantro vinaigrette.
• In a large saute pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the corn kernels and corn milk to the pan, as well as the garlic. Season the corn with salt and pepper and saute for 5 minutes. Add the cream, bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it has reduced by half, 5 to 7 minutes. Once the cream has reduced, remove the pan from the heat. Carefully transfer half of the mixture to a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Add the pureed portion back to the pan and place over heat to warm through. Season the creamed corn with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat.
• Sprinkle fish with salt, pepper & paprika. Coat fish in flour on a shallow dish, shake off excess flour.
• When oil heats add fillets and saute 3 mins both sides.
• Remove fillets from pan and pour broth, lemon juice, and chopped fresh basil into the hot pan. Bring to a boil and whisk in 4 tablespoons of butter for 1 to 2 minutes, then simmer for 5 to 10 minutes till sauce reduces by half. Basil will turn the color of steamed spinach, it is okay, you will taste the sweet basil accent in the sauce.
• Serve sauce over fillets.
