Directions: |
Directions:-Pat fish dry, cut into pieces, season both sides with half of the dried oregano, cumin, salt and pepper.
-Heat about two tbsp of olive oil in a large ceramic or heavy nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Lower to medium heat and saute fish on both sides briefly until somewhat golden (about 4 minutes or so).
-Remove fish carefully from heat. Set aside.
-Add more oil to the pan, if needed, and saute onion for three minutes.
-Now, add garlic,tomatoes and capers and season with the remaining oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Saute for about five-seven more minutes.
-Add lemon juice, and water. Remove from heat briefly to add white wine (I always prefer adding wine away from open flame). Return to medium-high heat and bring to a simmer.
-Add fish to the simmering liquid, turn down to medium heat, and let simmer until cod is firmer and perhaps begins to flake (another 10 minutes or so).
-Remove from heat and sprinkle with the fresh mint.
-Divide cod, tomatoes and herb wine broth among four bowls or plates. |
