Photo: Cod with Roasted Tomato Salsa Recipe
Ingredients
- 6 plum tomatoes, sliced into quarter wedges
- 1/2 red onion, sliced into quarters
- Olive oil
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
- 7 cloves garlic
- 1 jalapeno, sliced in half and seeds removed
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- Juice of 1 lime
- 4 (5-ounce) center-cut cod filets, skinned
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Add the tomatoes and red onion to a bowl and drizzle with oil. Season with salt and pepper. Add to a greased baking sheet. Add the garlic to a square of tinfoil, drizzle with olive oil and seal. Place on the sheet tray and roast for 25 minutes, until charred and tender.
Remove from oven and let cool for a few minutes. Add the vegetables and garlic to a food processor along with jalapeno, cilantro and lime juice; pulse until chunky. Taste for seasoning and season with salt and pepper, if necessary.
Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the fish and cook for 4 minutes per side. Top with the roasted salsa

This one really worked out nicely!! I cook for people as a side job, and my challenge from a couple was to find something to do with the cod their son had given them. Cod is normally so bland. As her son is a fisherman, she taught me one tip to keep it from tasting fishy - scrape off any of the gray portions. I did, and no fishy taste whatsoever. We all loved this recipe. The tomato sauce is *mild* and light enough to go with a light fish - is not heavy like pasta sauce nor salsa-like in spite of the ingredients. I made it as written except used less jalapeno. Also, when the fish was done, I dumped the sauce over it in the pan, covered the pan, and let it heat for a minute. I then let it sit for 10 minutes with a lid on, so the flavors would be absorbed. My fish flaked into chunks also, but nobody cared. Definitely making this again!!! Love the Neelys - cutest couple and all of their recipes are delicious.

This was SO tasty!! And the only change I made was to pulse half the tomato salsa and left half chunky. Recipe is a keeper!!

My family enjoy fish and this was an easy dish to prepare. Fish with a Mex-Tex twist made this fish recipe one my family will want often. Usually, I bake fish with some type of garlic sauce or fry it. Its time for a change and this recipe did it.
