Ingredients
2 teaspoons unsalted butter cold
1 teaspoon olive oil
4 4-ounce cod fillets
4 shallots peeled and minced
2 cups red wine
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons port
1 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 teaspoons chopped Italian parsley
Preparation
- Step 1
Heat 1 teaspoon of the butter and the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cod and sauté just until cooked through, about 2 minutes per side, turning the cod carefully with a wide spatula. Remove the cod to a plate and keep warm.
- Step 2
Place the shallots in the skillet and sauté until softened, about 1 minute. Add the wine and cook, stirring and scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon, until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and port. Cook for 1 minute longer. Cut the remaining teaspoon of butter into small pieces and whisk it into the sauce. Season with the salt and pepper. Strain.
- Step 3
Spoon the sauce into the center of 4 plates. Top with a cod fillet and sprinkle with parsley. Serve immediately.
