wild pacific cod in tomatillo salsa verde
This totally fresh and delightfully spicy dish is PERFECT for using up summer garden goodies! I made the tomatilla salsa verde the day before and it's sumptuous with this fish dish and drizzled over grilled zucchini and served with caprese for a colorful and lively summer dish for two! (I got the tomatilla recipe from the website: shewearsmanyhats.com). I tried it first on the grilled zucchini and loved it so much I used it for this fish dish the next night! The flavors of the salsa verde melded nicely in the frig overnite. And the caprese adds a nice chill to even out the somewhat spicy fish.
