Main Dishes

Zubereitungszeit ca. 30 MinutenVorbereitung ca. 5 MinutenKochzeit ca. 25 Minuten

Zutaten:

1 pound cod filets (3-4 filets)
2 teaspoons garam masala
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons olive oil (for cooking)
2 medium shallots (sliced)
2 cloves garlic (sliced)
1 ¼ cup orzo pasta
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup coconut milk
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 cups baby spinach (chopped)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Scallions (garnish)

Arbeitsschritte:

Dry off your cod filets well and season with a mix of garam masala and salt. Heat your large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add oil and when shimmering, add cod filets in the skillet. Sear hard for 4-5 minutes on the first side to get a really good sear. Then flip and cook for just a minute on the second side. Remove filets and place them on a plate with a paper towel.
To the skillet, turn heat down to medium and add shallot and garlic. Cook until translucent, 2-3 minutes.
Add orzo to the skillet and stir to combine. Add chicken stock and coconut milk and stir to combine well. Bring to a simmer. Simmer the orzo in the liquid until it's al dente texture, still just a tiny bit crispy. Don't cover the skillet so the liquid can reduce.
Add red pepper flakes to the orzo along with baby spinach and stir.
When orzo is almost cooked through, add cod filets back to the skillet and continue to simmer for another minute or two to finish cooking cod and finish orzo.
Be sure to taste the orzo to make sure it's cooked through. If the skillet seems dry, add another splash of chicken stock. Taste and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the cod on a plate with the orzo while warm garnished with scallions.
