Codfish With Broccoli Di Rape

Total Time: 50 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 40 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 4 cod, steaks, about 2 inches thick (about 1 and 1/2 pounds)
• 1 lb broccoli raab, washed, with hard stems removed
• 5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 6 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 dried hot peppers or 1 hot pepper flakes
• 1 cup black olives, cured in oil
• salt
• extra virgin olive oil, for garnish

Recipe

• 1 bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. add in the rape. when the water comes back to a boil, drain the rape and set aside.
• 2 in a small skillet, heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil over medium heat. add the garlic and hot pepper and cook until the garlic takes on color, about 3 minutes.
• 3 in a large baking pan, dribble the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. add the drained rape, the olives, and the cooked garlic and olive oil.
• 4 place the rape in the oven and bake it for 10 minutes, until the rape is tender when pierced with a fork. (it's fine if the rape overcooks. the leaves will get a little crispy, but the taste will be sweeter.)
• 5 remove the rape from the oven and push aside the vegetable to make room for the codfish steaks.
• 6 nestle them into the pan, season to taste with the salt, and return the pan to the oven for another 10 to 15 minutes, until the fish is cooked.
• 7 garnish the fish with extra virgin olive oil and serve. serves 4.
