Cod With Butter Sauce Recipes

COD WITH BROWN BUTTER LEMON SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the peels from the lemons, revealing the flesh. Cut the segments free from the membranes, then dice and place in a bowl. Squeeze any remaining juice from the membranes into the bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter and begin to cook, stirring, until the butter begins to brown. Add the brioche, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, continually tossing and swirling the brioche until evenly toasted, about 4 minutes. Remove the croutons to a plate and let cool. Wipe out the pan.
• Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper. Heat the same pan over medium-high heat. Add 4 tablespoons butter and the oil and begin to cook over the heat, stirring. Add the fish and cook, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fish and continue to cook, basting occasionally with the butter from the pan, another 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the fish to a plate. Wipe out the pan.
• Turn the pan to medium heat and add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter. Let melt, then add the capers and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Continue to cook until the butter browns, then add the wine, lemon juice and segments and parsley. Swirl together. Spoon the sauce over the fish and garnish with the croutons.

SEARED COD WITH CHIVE BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place the fillets on a sheet tray or rack so the fish can release its natural juices.
• Place the bread crumbs into a shallow dish. In a separate shallow dish add 2 beaten eggs. Season both sides of the fillet with salt and pepper. Once seasoned, brush the belly side of the cod with the egg. Dip the egg side into the bread crumbs.
• In a cast iron skillet add grapeseed oil. Before placing fish into pan, make sure the skillet is very hot. Sear only 1 side of the fish (the side with the bread crumbs). Once 1 side is seared, place the skillet in the oven for about 3 to 4 minutes until cooked.
• Once the fish is cooked, flip it over and add the lemon juice, butter and sprig of thyme. Let melt and baste the fish with the juice.
• Pour over the Butter Sauce and serve.
• In saucepan, add wine, sprigs of thyme, shallot and garlic. Set on back burner to allow the wine to reduce. Once the sauce is reduced to a syrup, strain and add the heavy cream, and lemon juice and bring to a slight simmer.
• Whisk in cold butter and once melted add the fresh chives and season with black pepper.

POACHED COD WITH LEMON-BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut cod fillets into four serving size pieces and place in large pan in one layer.
• Add the milk and the water to the pan so that the fish is barely covered--if necessary add more water.
• Add the bay leaf, the parsley sprigs, peppercorns and cloves.
• Bring to a simmer and cover and cook gently for three to four minutes until fish just flakes--cooking time will depend upon the thickness of the fish--do not overcook.
• While the fish is poaching, start the sauce by melting one tablespoon of the butter in a saucepan and briefly cooking the garlic and the shallots in the butter.
• Remove 1/4 cup of the poaching liquid and add it to the sauce, stirring all the while.
• Bring the sauce to a boil, add the lemon juice and swirl in the remaining butter, one tablespoon at a time.
• Remove from the heat and add the minced parsley.
• Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning.
• Drain the fish and serve it hot with the lemon-butter sauce poured over it.

COD IN BUTTER SAUCE RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• In a deep, large skillet melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Fry the sage leaves on both sides until crispy. Remove to a saucepan (1qt minimum), keeping the butter in the skillet. Add another tablespoon butter to the skillet and set aside. In the saucepan with the sage, add the clam juice, dry sherry, whole milk, garlic, shallots, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil until it reduces by half. Heat another tablespoon of butter in a separate saucepan on medium heat until foamy. Sprinkle with flour, stirring a couple of minutes with a metal whisk until well mixed and the sage breaks. You want the mixture to be tan but not brown. Slowly add the reduced mixture to the flour mixture, stirring quickly to incorporate. Turn the heat to low, then whisk in the 2 sticks of butter 2 tablespoons at a time. Add the lemon juice, salt, and white pepper. Once all is incorporated, set aside. Season the cod with salt and pepper. Set the flame on the stove to medium-high and cook the fillets for 5 minutes on the first side. Carefully flip the fillets and cook for another 3-5 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through. Carefully remove the cod from the pan, split the sauce over the fillets, and add the chopped parsley just before serving.
