BAKED HADDOCK WITH TOMATO AND CILANTRO
Easy low-fat way to make baked haddock with tons of flavor! I love baked haddock but my body does not love all of the calories that go along with the rich flavor, so I decided to try a new twist and it's even better. It's fairly easy though there are a lot of ingredients (Which can be removed depending on taste...the most important part is the tomato cilantro fish and scallions!). The presentation of the fish is beautiful with the red and green colors against the breadcrumbs.

TOMATO-POACHED FISH WITH CHILE OIL AND HERBS
Poaching boneless, skinless fish fillets in a brothy sauce is a foolproof (and undeniably delicious) method for cooking fish. Here, go for meaty, mild-flavored, firm-fleshed varieties like cod, haddock, pollack, halibut or flounder. This flavorful sauce, made from burst cherry (or other small) tomatoes, sizzled shallots and toasted garlic, definitely has a summery vibe; feel free to substitute a can of peeled tomatoes if the real deal isn't in season.

Steps:
- Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large skillet (use one with a lid) over medium-high. Add garlic and shallots and cook, swirling the skillet constantly until they start to toast and turn light golden brown, 2 minutes or so. Add red-pepper flakes and swirl to toast for a few seconds. Remove from heat and transfer all but 1 tablespoon of the chile oil to a small bowl.
- Add tomatoes to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until they burst and start to become saucy and jammy, 5 to 8 minutes. Add fish sauce, if using, and 1 1/2 cups water, swirling to release any of the bits stuck on the bottom of the skillet.
- Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened but still nice and brothy, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Season the fish with salt and pepper and gently lay the pieces in the brothy tomatoes. Cover the skillet and cook until the fish is opaque and just cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes (slightly longer for a thicker piece of fish, like halibut).
- To serve, transfer fish and brothy tomatoes to a large shallow bowl or divide among four bowls. Drizzle with reserved chile oil, more olive oil and the crispy shallots and garlic. Top with cilantro and mint, and serve with limes for squeezing over the top. Serve with tortillas, toast or rice, if you like.

Steps:
- Stir together the rice, 3 cups water, 1 tablespoon oil and a pinch of salt in a medium pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Cover, reduce the heat to low and cook until fluffy and tender, about 20 minutes.
- Bring a large straight-sided skillet or saute pan filled with water to a boil over high heat. Add the tomatillos and cook until softened and slightly pale, about 4 minutes. Drain the tomatillos and put in a blender along with the onion, 1 jalapeno, garlic, cilantro stems and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Put the lid on the blender, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth, about 1 minute. Pour the tomatillo salsa back into the same skillet or saute pan and set over medium heat.
- Season the fish fillets on all sides with 2 teaspoons salt. Nestle the fish in the tomatillo salsa, cover and cook until the fish is opaque and there is no resistance when a paring knife is inserted, 6 to 8 minutes.
- Reserve 1/4 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves for garnish and chop the remaining cilantro leaves to yield 1/4 cup.
- When the rice is done, use a fork to fluff it, then stir in the lime zest, lime juice and the 1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Keep warm.
- Generously coat a small saute pan with oil and heat over medium high until shimmering. Add a pinch of flour to the oil. If it sizzles, the oil is ready for frying. Line a small plate with paper towels.
- Thinly slice the 2 remaining jalapeños crosswise. Put the flour in a small bowl. Working in batches, coat the jalapeño slices in the flour, then fry on each side until the seeds are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes total. Transfer to the prepared plate and season with a pinch of salt.
- To serve, put a quarter of the rice on left side of a wide shallow bowl, spoon a quarter of the tomatillo salsa on the right side and use a spatula to carefully place 1 fish fillet on top. Repeat with the remaining rice, salsa and fish. Garnish with the reserved cilantro leaves and a fried jalapeño slices.

Steps:
- Preheat over to 450 degrees. Cut three or four vertical gashes on each side of the fish, then sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Brush a baking pan with olive oil and lay the fish on it. Mix together all but 1 tablespoon of scallions, the garlic, 3/4 cup of the cilantro and the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Stuff the fish with half of this mixture and spread the rest over the top. Pour the wine around the fish. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, basting occasionally with the pan juices. The fish is done when it begins to flake and is opaque clear to the bone. (Bear in mind that weakfish is slightly pink, so don't expect it to become stark white. Remember, too, that it flakes and overcooks easily.) Spoon the remaining pan juices over the fish and garnish with reserved scallions and cilantro. This recipe yields 4 servings. Substitutions: Whole bluefish, grouper, mackerel, striped bass, sea bass or red snapper
Tips:
- Choose the freshest weakfish possible. Look for fish with bright, clear eyes, red gills, and a firm, springy body.
- Make sure to scale and gut the weakfish before cooking. This will help to remove any impurities and ensure that the fish cooks evenly.
- Season the weakfish liberally with salt and pepper. This will help to enhance the natural flavor of the fish.
- Roast the weakfish in a hot oven. This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy flesh.
- Serve the weakfish with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or potatoes.
Conclusion:
Weakfish roasted with tomato and cilantro is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is cooked to perfection and the tomato and cilantro sauce is flavorful and refreshing. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
