Cod in Tarragon Tomato Broth



3 Tbs. olive oil

1 large shallot, finely chopped

1 clove garlic, minced

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

4 plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and chopped (canned is fine)

1 Tbs. chopped fresh tarragon

1/4 cup dry white wine

1/2 cup homemade or low-salt canned chicken or fish stock

2 cod fillets, about 6 oz. each



In a medium saucepan, heat 2 Tbs. of the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shallot, garlic,

salt, and pepper and sauté until the shallot is softened and beginning to brown, about 5 min.



Add the tomatoes and 2 tsp. of the tarragon and continue to cook until the tomatoes begin to give

off some of their juice, about 5 min. Add the wine and cook, uncovered, over medium-high heat

until reduced by half, about 7 min. Add the stock, reduce the heat to low, and let simmer while you

prepare the fish.



Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 Tbs. olive oil in a nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add

the fish (most attractive side down) and cook until well browned, about 3 min. Turn it over and pour

the tomato broth around the fish. Let simmer gently until the fish is cooked through, about 7 min.



Transfer the fish to soup bowls or rimmed plates and ladle the broth on top. Sprinkle with the

remaining 1 tsp. tarragon and serve.
