Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 (5- to 6-ounce) whole Mexican-style chorizo sausages
1 pound fingerling potatoes
Tomato Broth
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 large red bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/2 large yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch dice
3 large cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon red chile flakes
2 cups peeled, seeded, and diced fresh tomatoes, or 2 cups canned whole peeled tomatoes in puree, broken up by hand
1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
2 cups chicken stock (page 190) or vegetable stock (page 191)
1/2 cup Cakebread Cellars Sauvignon Blanc
Kosher salt
4 (4- to 5-ounce) skinless halibut or cod fillets
Freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Heat the olive oil in a small ovenproof skillet over moderate heat. Add the chorizo and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast until the sausages feel firm, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly, then cut into 1-inch-thick slices.
  • Put the potatoes in a saucepan with salted water to cover by 1 inch. Bring to a boil, adjust the heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until the potatoes are tender when pierced, about 15 minutes. Drain and let cool. Peel, then cut into 1-inch chunks.
  • For the tomato broth: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over high heat. Add the bell peppers and sauté, stirring, for about 3 minutes to soften them, then add the garlic and chile flakes. Lower the heat and cook for about 1 minute to release the garlic fragrance, then add the tomatoes and the oregano, rubbing the herb between your fingers. Simmer briskly until the tomatoes soften, about 2 minutes, then add the stock and wine. Simmer for about 5 minutes to thicken the liquid slightly, then add the chorizo and potatoes. Simmer for 5 minutes to develop the flavor. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
  • Season the fish on both sides with salt and pepper. Arrange the fillets on top of the stew, then cover and simmer gently until the fish is fully cooked, about 10 minutes. Divide the chorizo, potatoes, and broth among 4 soup bowls, then top each portion with a fish fillet. Garnish with chopped cilantro. Serve immediately.
  • Enjoy with Cakebread Cellars Carneros Pinot Noir or another medium-bodied red wine with zesty fruit.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I'll definitely try it again using more spices.

I didn't have any chorizo, so I used Italian sausage instead. It turned out great!

The fish was a little overcooked, but the broth was still delicious.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. I'll definitely try it again with less chili peppers.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The broth was flavorful and the fish was moist and flaky.
