SAUTÉED MAINE COD WITH CARMELIZED ENDIVE




Source of Recipe


Northeast - Chefs Clark Frasier and Mark Gaier


Recipe Introduction


Pairs well with Redwood Creek Chardonnay




List of Ingredients




6 large endives
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
6 skinless cod fillets, 6 ounces each




Recipe



1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

2. Pull the endives apart into individual leaves, discarding the tough inner cores. In a bowl combine the endive leaves with the vinegar. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss to coat the leaves evenly.

3. Melt the butter in a large stainless steel sauté pan over medium heat and continue to heat until it starts to turn light brown. Add the endive and cook, tossing gently, until the leaves start to caramelize. Set aside in a warm place.

4. Heat the clarified butter in a large ovenproof sauté pan over medium high heat until it is very hot. Sprinkle the cod fillets lightly with salt and pepper on each side. When the clarified butter is very hot but not smoking, gently place the cod fillets in the pan. Cook for 1 minute and turn the fish with a spatula. (Depending on the size of your pan, you may have to sauté the cod in 2 batches.) Transfer the pan to the oven. (If you sautéed the cod in 2 batches, arrange them on a baking sheet large enough to hold them all.) Cook the cod in the oven for 3 minutes until just firm.

5. Arrange the endive on 6 warm plates and top with the cod fillets.
