Steps:
- 1. Set a strainer over a bowl and cut the nectarines into the strainer, so their juice collects in the bowl.
- 2. Heat the butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. When it is hot but not smoking, add the nectarines and sauté them until they sizzle and their juices reduce and begin to thicken, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle the sugar over them and sauté until the juices further thicken and the sugar caramelizes slightly, about 1 minute. You may want to increase the heat under the pan to medium-high. Add the lemon juice and sauté until the juices thicken, then add any nectarine juice that collected in the bowl, and shake the pan so that all is well blended. Let the nectarines cook, shaking the pan occasionally, until the juices are very thick, which will take a minute or so. The total cooking time will be about 6 minutes.
- 3. Transfer the nectarines to 4 warmed dessert plates, or to a warmed serving dish, let sit for about 4 minutes so they are not blistering hot when served.
Tips:
- Use ripe nectarines: Look for nectarines that are fragrant and have a slight give when you press them. Avoid nectarines that are bruised or have blemishes.
- Caramelize the nectarines properly: To get the best flavor, caramelize the nectarines in a single layer in a hot skillet. Don't overcrowd the pan, or the nectarines will steam instead of caramelize.
- Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish. Use a high-quality extra virgin olive oil that has a fruity flavor.
- Don't overcook the cod: Cod is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the cod until it is just opaque in the center, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately after it is made. The nectarines will start to lose their caramelized flavor if they sit for too long.
Conclusion:
This dish is a delicious and easy way to enjoy fresh nectarines. The caramelized nectarines are a perfect complement to the flaky cod, and the whole dish is finished off with a simple vinaigrette. This dish is sure to impress your friends and family, and it's also a healthy and nutritious meal.
