Best 5 Black Cod With Swiss Chard Olives And Lemon Recipes

CHARD-WRAPPED FISH WITH LEMON AND OLIVE

Steps:

• Finely zest and juice both lemons. Reserve the juice and half the zest. In a small bowl, combine the remaining zest with the olives, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 2 tablespoons of the chopped cilantro leaves, 1 teaspoon garlic, and the red pepper flakes until incorporated.
• Bring a small pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Use a knife to separate the leaves from the chard stems so you have 2 leaves from each stem. Thinly slice the stems crosswise. Dip the chard leaves in the boiling water for 10 seconds to soften; drain, cool slightly, and pat dry. Cut the fish into 8 equal-sized pieces, season with salt and pepper, and spread 2 teaspoons of the olive mixture on each piece of fish.
• Place 1 piece of fish on a piece of chard and roll it up; use the extra 2 leaves to patch any parts that need extra wrapping. Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until tender and lightly golden, 8 to 9 minutes. Add the chard stems with the remaining 3 teaspoons garlic and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until absorbed, 1 minute. Add the reserved lemon zest and juice with the stock, salt, and pepper and cook, stirring, until the liquid thickens and bubbles, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in most of the remaining cilantro.
• Nestle the fish in the skillet, scatter the tomatoes and whole olives over the fish, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the fish is opaque and the chard can be cut easily, 10 minutes. Serve over the grain of your choice with sauce spooned over the top; garnish with cilantro.

COD WITH SWISS CHARD, OLIVES, AND LEMON

Steps:

• Place lemon in a small saucepan; add water just to cover. Place a small heatproof plate inside the saucepan, on top of the lemon, to keep it submerged. Bring water to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until lemon is very tender when pierced with a knife, about 30 minutes. Drain. Cut lemon in half and let it cool.
• Scoop out the pulp from both lemon halves and press pulp through a coarse-mesh sieve into a small bowl; discard any solids remaining in the sieve. Finely chop the peel and pith and add to pulp. Set aside.
• Toast coriander and cumin seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until slightly darkened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Coarsely grind the toasted coriander and cumin seeds in a spice mill or with a mortar and pestle.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season fish with spice mixture, salt, and pepper; place skin side down in skillet. Cook until browned and crisp, 5-6 minutes. Turn and cook until just opaque in the center, 2-4 minutes more. Be more cautious cooking the fish if it is skinless, as you do not want the unprotected flesh itself to be brown and crisp; you could also bake or broil the fish if it is skinless.
• Meanwhile, heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add chard by the handful, tossing and allowing it to wilt slightly between additions. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until all chard is tender, 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
• Mix the sliced olives and the reserved lemon mixture into the cooked chard. Season with salt, pepper, and more crushed red pepper flakes, if desired. Serve fish with the chard.

BLACK COD COOKED WITH SAKE

Steps:

• In a medium pot, bring sake to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.
• Add black cod, ginger slices, burdock root and mountain potato. Then add regular soy and sugar and cook with a lid right over the fillet, not over the pot. This lid must be slightly smaller than the rim of the pot so that steam can evaporate through the gap.
• When the vegetables and black cod are cooked through, remove them from the pot and boil the sauce until thickened slightly and reduced.
• Add mirin for glazing. Then add tamari soy.
• Place the fillet on a plate, garnish it with cooked vegetables. Pour the sauce over them.
• Garnish with white scallion, shredded ginger and kinome on top.

SAUTEED BLACK COD WITH SHALLOT-LEMON VINAIGRETTE AND FRESH HERB SALAD

SWISS CHARD WITH OLIVES AND LEMON

Steps:

• Cut stem from center of each chard leaf. Slice stems crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces; place in medium bowl. Cut leaves crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-wide strips.
• Bring large pot of water to boil; salt generously. Add chard stems; cook until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Add chard leaves. Cook until just tender, stirring occasionally, about 2 minutes. Drain in large colander, pressing out any water. DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand in colander at room temperature.
• Heat 4 tablespoons oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add olives and garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add chard and chard stems. Toss until heated through and any remaining water evaporates, about 4 minutes. Mix in lemon juice and remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl and serve.
