Cod with Red Pepper-Chorizo Ragout

Rating: 5 stars

Cod and chorizo are a classic pairing in Spain and Portugal that infuses the mild but meaty fish with the warmth of spicy sausage. Red peppers add a hint of sweetness. Prep and Cook Time: 35 minutes. Notes: Buy the best-quality chorizo you can find, preferably from a butcher or Mexican market. Avoid the kind that is very soft and sold in plastic casings--it tends to break down too much in cooking. (If you can't find good chorizo, substitute with another spicy uncooked sausage). Ask your fishmonger for cod from the thickest part of the fish so that the fillets cook evenly.
