Seared Cod with Swiss Chard and Almonds
Premium Hungarian paprika elevates the flavor profile of this dish. Winter greens make a pretty plated entrée and are nutritious, too. Besides more than half the recommended vitamins A and C from the greens, the fish and greens supply a little zinc. Serve with couscous or orzo.
How to Make It
Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add almonds to pan; cook 2 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring constantly. Transfer to small bowl with a slotted spoon. Sprinkle almonds with 1/4 teaspoon paprika, stirring to coat. Set aside.
Add garlic to pan; cook 1 minute or until golden, stirring constantly. Add 3 1/3 cups chard to pan; cook 1 1/2 minutes or until wilted, stirring constantly. Repeat procedure 2 times with remaining chard. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon salt; cover and cook 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in vinegar. Remove from pan; wipe skillet with paper towels.
Sprinkle fish evenly with the remaining 1 teaspoon paprika and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. Heat remaining 2 teaspoons olive oil in pan over medium-high heat. Add fish to pan; cook fish 2 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Serve fish with chard mixture; sprinkle evenly with almonds.
