COD WITH SUMMER TOMATOES
Serves 4

Pan Seared Cod with Summer Tomato Vinaigrette:
1 1/2 lb. heirloom tomatoes, coarsely chopped
2 Tbsp. shallots, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. white balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp. fresh chives, minced
1 Tbsp. Italian parsley, chopped
3 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. fennel seeds
Salt and fresh ground pepper
1 1/3 lb. cod, cut into 4 portions
1 Tbsp. butter

In a saute pan, combine the tomatoes, shallots, garlic, vinegar, chives, parsley, 2 Tbsp. of the olive oil and 1/4 tsp. of the fennel seeds. Season with salt and fresh ground pepper. Saute 3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and keep warm. In another saute pan, heat the remaining 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Add the cod, sprinkle with the remaining fennel seeds and season with salt and pepper. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, 3-5 minutes. Flip the fillets and add the butter. Spoon the butter over the fillets as they cook, about 2 minutes longer. Transfer the cod to plates and top with the warm tomato vinaigrette. Serve with the fingerling potatoes and zucchini.

Oven Roasted Fingerling Potatoes:
8-12 fingerling potatoes, scrubbed and cut into small chunks
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
Sea salt and fresh ground pepper

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees. Place potatoes, olive oil and garlic on a baking sheet. Season with salt and fresh ground pepper. Toss together. Bake until potatoes are dark golden brown and tender, about 20 minutes.

Sauteed Zucchini:
2 medium zucchini, julienned
1 small clove garlic
1 Tbsp. butter
Sea salt

In a small skillet, melt the butter with the garlic. Saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the zucchini and saute until bright green, about 1 minute.
