Seared Cod with Spiced Tomato Sofrito and Steamed Brown Rice
Pan-seared cod fillets topped with a vibrant, aromatic tomato and pepper sofrito, served alongside nutty steamed brown rice for a satisfying finish.
INGREDIENTS
8 ounces Cod Fillet
0.75 cup cooked Brown Rice
2 teaspoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
0.5 cup diced Red Bell Pepper
0.25 cup diced Yellow Onion
2 cloves minced Garlic
0.5 cup Crushed Tomatoes
PREPARATION
Cook brown rice according to package instructions until tender and set aside.
Heat one teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sauté the diced onion and bell pepper until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, crushed tomatoes, and a pinch of smoked paprika and cumin, simmering for 10 minutes to thicken the sofrito.
Season the cod fillets with a pinch of salt and pepper, then sear in a separate non-stick pan with the remaining teaspoon of olive oil for 3 to 4 minutes per side until opaque.
Plate the steamed brown rice, place the seared cod on top, and spoon the warm spiced sofrito over the fish before serving.
