Pan-Seared Cod in White Wine Tomato Basil Sauce
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 large cloves (or 3 smaller cloves) garlic, finely minced
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1/2 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon zest
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper (more to taste)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 and 1/2 pounds fresh cod, cut into 4 fillets (or four 6 ounce fillets)
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add crushed red pepper flakes and garlic and saute for 1 minute, or until garlic is fragrant. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they're soft and blistering, but still hold their shape, 9 to 12 minutes. Add in the white wine, stir, and allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer. Stir in the basil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper and cook for 2 minutes. Transfer the sauce into a bowl and set aside until needed.
- Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Season both sides of cod with salt and pepper. Place cod in the oil and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Carefully flip the cod over and place the pan in the oven to continue cooking for another 5 minutes, or until it's cooked through.
- Pour the white wine tomato basil sauce over the cod and serve at once.
