2 (6 to 8-ounce) cod fillets
extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
i small white or red onion
red pepper flakes
1 lemon
1 can chickpeas or 1 cup previously prepared dried chickpeas
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
bunch of fresh flat-leaf parsley

1 chunk ricotta salata
1 pint apple cider
1 tblsp unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Prep the Ingredients Chop ½ the small onion Chop 2 cloves garlic Remove the seeds from one pomegranate Open and rinse one can of chickpeas chop sage Crumble ricotta salata cheese Make the Chickpea Stew Heat the oil in a large saucepan Add the onion Add the garlic Add a dash of chili pepper flakes Add about ½ cup apple cider and bring to a simmer Add the chickpeas and bring the heat to low Let this simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes, until the liquid is most evaporated Salt and pepper to taste. Add a squeeze of lemon, water, and salt to taste Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 25 minutes Add sage and cheese Add a tblsp of butter Mix and season Do not add the pomegranate until you are ready to serve (heat is not your friend with these seeds as they change color and texture) Note: Gothamist would add chorizo, bacon etc to this dish, but since we add it to every recipe we do here, it has been deleted. We recommend it though Make the Cod Preheat the oven to 350. Season both sides of the fillets with salt and pepper Place a glug of olive oil in the bottom of a pan and place on high heat When hot but not smoking, place fillet in the pan, skin side down if you have skin on your fillets Roast fillets in pan for about 3-4 minutes - do not touch until they naturally come away from the pan Flip the cod and sear on the other side Place pan in oven and roast for about 6-8 minutes Finish the Dish Let the fish rest so juices settle Reheat your chickpeas and add the pomegranate seeds Place the chickpeas on the plate and add the cod on top Collect any of the pan juices and baste the cod with them before serving
