Seared Cod with Cauliflower “Risotto”
Prep: 15 minutes
Roast: 8 minutes
Serves: 4
4 skinless cod fillets (about 1 1/2 lbs.), thawed if necessary
3/4 tsp. Our Family® Salt
3/4 tsp. Our Family® Ground Black Pepper
1/4 cup Our Family® 100% Pure Olive Oil
1 medium shallot, finely chopped
4 cups cauliflower rice
1/2 tsp. Our Family® Minced Garlic in Water
1/2 cup unsalted chicken stock
1/2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup Our Family® Grated Parmesan Cheese plus additional for serving (optional)
2 Tbsp. finely chopped fresh parsley plus additional for garnish (optional)
2 Tbsp. Our Family® Unsalted Butter
1. Preheat oven to 400°. Pat cod dry with paper towel; sprinkle both sides with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. In large oven-safe skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat. Add cod; cook 4 minutes or until lightly browned, turning once. Transfer skillet to oven; roast 4 minutes or until internal temperature of cod reaches 145°.
2. In separate large skillet, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat; add shallot and cook 1 minute, stirring frequently. Stir in cauliflower rice, garlic, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper; cook 4 minutes or until cauliflower starts to brown, stirring frequently. Stir in stock and lemon juice; cook 3 minutes or until cauliflower is tender-crisp and almost all liquid is absorbed, stirring frequently. Remove skillet from heat. Add cheese, parsley and butter; stir until butter melts. Makes about 3 cups.
3. Serve “risotto” sprinkled with cheese, if desired, topped with cod and garnished with parsley, if desired.
