Pacific Cod or Sole Capri

Pacific Cod or Sole Capri

Name: Pacific Cod or Sole Capri
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 10 min
Yield: Serves 4

Capri — an island off Italy’s dramatically beautiful Amalfi coast, at the southern extreme of the Gulf of Naples — has been a favored tourist destination since Emperor Tiberius relocated there from Rome in 26 A.D. He built a villa on then-remote Capri to force Roman supplicants to come to him, protect himself from assassins and coup plotters, and — allegedly — to indulge in decadent pursuits. Today, Capri is famed both for its striking scenery — featuring steep cliffs overlooking the ocean — and its characteristic cuisine, focused on fresh produce, cheeses, herbs and seafood.

Pacific Cod or Sole Capri

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 10 minutes | Total Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

4 Vital Choice Alaskan cod or Pacific sole fillets (4 to 6 ounces each), thawed
1 cup clam juice or fish broth
1/4 cup dry white wine
2/3 cup slivered fresh basil
2/3 cup sun-dried tomatoes in oil, sliced
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/2 tablespoon butter
Lemon wedges, if desired

Instructions

Bring clam juice or fish broth and wine to a boil in a large (12-inch) nonstick pan; stir in basil and tomatoes. Cook down slightly. Season with salt and pepper; remove and keep warm.
Rinse thawed fillets under cold water; pat dry with paper towel. Coat pan with nonstick cooking spray then heat butter over medium-high heat. Add fillets; cook 2 to 3 minutes (for sole) or 4 to 5 minutes (cod) until browned.
Gently turn fillets over and season with salt and pepper. Cover pan tightly and reduce heat to medium. Cook an additional 1 to 2 minutes, until fish is opaque throughout. Do not overcook.
Spoon 1/3 cup of topping over fillets to serve.
