Baked Fish With Olives And Potatoes Recipes

ROASTED COD WITH POTATOES AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss potatoes with garlic, rosemary, and 1 tablespoon oil; season generously with salt and pepper. Arrange potatoes in a single layer, cut side down. Bake, tossing potatoes once, until beginning to brown, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, rub fillets with remaining teaspoon oil; season all sides with salt and pepper.
• Remove baking sheet from oven. Add tomatoes and olives to potatoes; stir to combine. Push vegetable mixture to one side; place fillets flat on baking sheet, next to vegetables. Return to oven, and roast until fish is cooked through and potatoes are brown and tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer fish and vegetables to serving platter. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges if desired.

Steps:

• Adjust the oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Brush a rimmed baking sheet with 2 tablespoons olive oil.

• Bake in the preheated oven, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until spotty brown and just tender, 35 to 40 minutes.

MOROCCAN BAKED FISH WITH POTATOES, PEPPERS AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Combine garlic, parsley, cilantro, cumin, paprika and saffron in a dish big enough for the fish. Mix vinegar, lemon juice and tomato paste in a small bowl. Add to dish and mix. Place fillets in the dish, turning to coat them, cover and set aside to marinate 2 hours at room temperature, 3 hours if refrigerated.
• Place potatoes in a saucepan, add water to cover, bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer 15 minutes. Drain.
• Brush a baking dish that can go to the table and will hold the fish in a single layer with a little of the oil. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread potatoes in the dish, season with salt and pepper, and place fish fillets on top. Scatter peppers and tomatoes over fish. Add a little more salt and pepper. Spoon any excess marinade over fish, strew with olives, drizzle with remaining oil and bake about 30 minutes, until fish is just cooked through.

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until softened, about 30 seconds. Add 1/2 teaspoon oregano and the bay leaves and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes, olives, capers and a pinch of salt and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
• Pour the tomato mixture all over the fish. Bake until the fish is cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, put the potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with water by 1 inch; season with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a steady simmer and cook until very tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and toss with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon oregano; season with salt and pepper.
• Divide the fish among plates. Spoon the tomato mixture over the top and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. Serve with the potatoes.

BAKED FISH WITH OLIVES AND POTATOES

Steps:

• 1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 450°F. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with 3 tablespoons of the oil and salt and pepper to taste. Spread the potatoes in a large shallow roasting pan. Bake the potatoes 25 to 30 minutes, or until they begin to turn brown. 2 Stir together the remaining 3 tablespoons of the oil, the parsley, marjoram, lemon juice, zest, and salt and pepper to taste. Place half of the mixture inside the cavity of the fish and rub the remainder over the skin. 3 With a large spatula, turn the potatoes and scatter the olives all around. Rinse the fish well and pat dry. Place the fish on top of the potatoes. Bake about 8 to 10 minutes per inch of thickness at the widest point of the fish, or until the flesh is opaque when cut with a small sharp knife near the bone and the potatoes are tender. 4 Transfer the fish to a warm serving platter. Surround the fish with the potatoes and olives. Serve immediately. From "1,000 Italian Recipes." Copyright 2004 by Michele Scicolone. Used with permission of the publisher, Wiley Publishing, Inc.
