Porcini Crusted Cod With Thyme Butter Sauce Recipe 425

Steps:

• Mix first 4 ingredients in small bowl for herb butter. Season butter to taste with salt and pepper. Process dried porcini mushrooms in spice grinder to fine powder. Transfer powder to plate. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Press steaks into porcini powder to coat both sides well.
• Melt 2 tablespoons herb butter in heavy large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add steaks to skillet and cook to desired doneness, about 6 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer steaks to plates. Spoon rounded tablespoon of herb butter atop each steak and serve.

Steps:

• Place mushrooms in a spice grinder or food processor, and pulse until finely ground. Sprinkle cod with ground mushrooms, salt, and black pepper. Heat oil in small skillet over medium-high heat. Add cod and cook, turning once, just until opaque in center, about 6 minutes. Transfer cod to plate. Add wine, broth, and thyme to skillet; bring to boil and cook, stirring constantly, until reduced to 1 tablespoon. Remove skillet from heat and swirl in butter. Pour sauce over fish and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Combine the salt, porcini powder, brown sugar, garlic powder and cayenne in a bowl. Use your fingers to make sure the ingredients are evenly distributed. Rub the steaks generously with the rub. Let sit for a few minutes.
• Heat a saute pan or cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot.
• Lightly oil the steaks. Working in batches, place one of the steaks in the skillet and get a good sear on both sides, 6 to 7 minutes per side. Add the garlic, 2 sprigs thyme and 2 tablespoons butter to the pan and use a spoon to baste the steak with the butter. Remove the steak to a wire rack set over a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining steak, thyme and butter.
• Add the garlic to the rack with the steaks and roast until the steaks reach the desired doneness, 10 to 15 minutes for medium rare. Let rest in a warm spot for 7 to 8 minutes. Slice on the bias and serve with the roasted garlic.

Steps:

• Make a deep cut into the top side of tenderloin, about 4 inches from tail end, to facilitate folding the tail end under the roast to give the meat a more uniform thickness. Tie roast at 1-inch intervals with kitchen string.
• Heat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
• Pat tenderloin dry and sprinkle all over with 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper, rubbing into meat.
• Set roasting pan over 2 burners, then add 3 tablespoons oil and heat over medium-high heat until shimmering. Brown tenderloin on all sides, about 10 minutes.
• Sprinkle porcini powder evenly on top of tenderloin and roast in oven until thermometer inserted diagonally 2 inches into center of thickest part of meat registers 120°F, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Toward end of roasting tenderloin, stir together truffle butter and flour. Heat remaining tablespoon oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, and sauté mushrooms with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper until liquid released by the mushrooms evaporates and mushrooms are tender and golden, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Add 2 cups stock to skillet and simmer, stirring up brown bits, 1 minute. Remove skillet from heat.
• Transfer tenderloin to a cutting board and let stand 15 minutes (internal temperature will rise to about 130°F for medium-rare).
• Set roasting pan over 2 burners and add remaining 1 cup stock. Bring to a boil, scraping up brown bits, then pour stock into mushroom mixture in skillet.
• Bring mushroom mixture to a boil and whisk in truffle butter mixture, bit by bit. Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in scallion greens and salt and pepper to taste.
• Cut tenderloin into 1/2-inch-thick slices, discarding string, and serve with sauce.

Steps:

• Sprinkle cod evenly with mustard seeds and let marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours. Meanwhile, heat butter in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat. Add shallots; cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add peas, 1 cup water, and salt and black pepper, and cover partially with lid; cook until sauce is reduced, about 10 minutes. Set sauce aside and keep warm. Purée 3/4 cup peas, half-and-half, salt, and black pepper in a food processor; transfer to a 2-quart saucepan and keep warm over low heat. Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add cod; cook, turning once, until golden brown, about 4 minutes. Season with salt. Divide pea purée among 6 serving plates and top with cod; spoon over sauce and garnish with dill.
