YOU CAN ROAST the fillet as one whole piece or cut into 8-ounce pieces. Have your fish provider cut them for you if you want portioned pieces.

Cod with Roasted Chili Peppers and Cayenne

Ingredients
1 medium poblano pepper
½ jalapeno pepper
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp olive oil
1 garlic clove
½ shallot
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
½ tsp sea salt
1 ½ pounds cod fillets

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.

Wash and dry peppers. Rub with small amount of olive oil to help roasting. Roast peppers over an open flame on a grill or stovetop gas burner or even in the oven. Roast until peppers are soft and skin is blistering. Cover and let sit for 5 minutes. Peel away skin and remove seeds and steams.

Combine the roasted peppers, remaining olive oil, garlic, shallots, cayenne pepper, and sea salt in food processor and puree until smooth.

Rub a cookie sheet or spray with olive oil to prevent sticking (or cover the pan with parchment paper), place the cod on the sheet pan. Evenly spread the puree of roasted peppers over the cod fillet top and sides.

Bake for approximately 20–30 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork: internal temperature of the cod fillet should be 155 degrees.

Makes: 4 servings
Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 20–30 minutes

    I love Cod fish but my doctor ( who specializes in Functional or Preventive Medicine) told me to stay away from large fish due to heavy metals. Is there some reason that you suggested Cod vs. some other ‘ safer’ fish?

    Research indicates that fish servings of more than 4 ounces for women and 6 for men per week leads to heart disease, cancer and diabetes, not to mention kidney disease. I believe the quantity of fish should be adjusted accordingly.
