"Livornese" refers to a method for stewing fish in a rich tomato sauce with Kalamata olives, capers, garlic, fresh parsley, and white wine. Begin by adding a glug of olive oil to a sauté pan set over medium heat. Add in some chopped garlic and chopped parsley. While these ingredients are sauteing, prepare the cod by seasoning both sides with salt and pepper. Add the cod to the pan and let it cook for about 3 minutes on each side. Delicately remove the fish to a holding plate, and begin making the Livornese sauce: Deglaze the pan with some white wine and let it reduce for a few minutes. Then add in some roughly chopped tomatoes. Once the tomatoes begin to soften, crush them with the back of a fork to extract all their sweet, delicious juices. Let the tomatoes simmer over medium heat for about 5 to 6 minutes, or until the juices thicken a little. Add in the olives and capers, and cook for a few minutes longer to combine all the flavors. Taste the sauce, and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper to taste. Add the cod back to the pan, and spoon some sauce over the fish, cover the pan, and let it gently heat up for about five minutes. The cod is delicate and flaky, so use a large spatula to portion onto individual plates, and spoon all the Livornese sauce over the fish. Recipe by Steve Gray, Woodside, CA Recipe FROM: MMMMM .
