Poached Cod with Lemon and Capers

By JenHall

Very good - we used tilapia which worked fine.

Ingredients

• 2 or 3 green onions, cut into 2 inch long pieces
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 red onion, cut lengthwise into thin slices
• 2 tablespoons capers, drained well
• 1 carrot, cut into thin matchstick pieces
• 4 (4 oz.) cod fillets (or other white fish)
• 2 lemons

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oil in deep skillet over medium heat. Add onion and saute 3 minutes. Add capers and saute 1 minute. Add carrot and cook 2 minutes. Stir in green onions. Spread vegetables evenly over bottom of skillet.

Lay cod on the vegetables in skillet. Add a small amount of water just to cover the bottom of the skillet. Cover and cook until fish is just opaque in the center, about 10 minutes.

Gently transfer fish to a serving platter. Top with vegetables and capers. Just before serving, squeeze the lemons over the entire dish.
