Yield: 4 servings
Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 3/4-inch-thick slices bread, crusts removed
- 4 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
- 1 small clove garlic, chopped
- 1 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
- 1 Tbsp. fresh oregano leaves
- 1 lg. shallot, thinly sliced
- 1.5 oz. smoked chorizo, halved and very thinly sliced
- 2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 tsp. smoked paprika
- 4 6-oz. portions Wild Alaska Pollock
Directions:
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. Pulse bread in a food processor until bread crumbs are formed, equaling about 1.5 cups. Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and saute until soft. Add breadcrumbs. Cook for about 3 minutes, until golden and crisp, stirring often. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to a bowl, and toss in parsley and oregano. Wipe out nonstick skillet.
- Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in the same nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add shallot and chorizo. Cook about 2 minutes, stirring often, until chorizo is just crisp. Transfer to a bowl and mix with vinegar, and season with salt and pepper. Wipe out skillet.
- Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in the same nonstick skillet over high heat. Season Wild Alaska Pollock portions with salt, pepper, and paprika, and sear in skillet for 1-2 minutes. Flip fish and sear for about 4-5 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven and roast until fish is cooked through, about 5 minutes longer.
- Serve Wild Alaska Pollock topped with chorizo mixture and toasted breadcrumbs.
