Talimatlar
- 1.Prepare your ingredients. Thinly slice the fennel bulb. Mince the garlic. Zest the orange, then carefully segment the flesh and set aside. Squeeze any remaining juice from the orange membranes into a small bowl.
- 2.In a large pan, heat half of the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced fennel and a pinch of salt. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until it begins to soften and caramelize slightly.
- 3.Add the minced garlic and cook for one more minute until fragrant. Pour in the vegetable broth and the reserved orange juice. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it braise for 10-12 minutes until the fennel is tender.
- 4.While the fennel cooks, pat the cod fillets completely dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- 5.Heat the remaining olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Carefully place the cod fillets in the hot pan and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. The fish should flake easily with a fork.
- 6.Stir the olives and orange zest into the braised fennel. To serve, divide the fennel mixture between two plates. Top with a seared cod fillet, garnish with fresh orange segments and a sprinkle of chopped dill.
