Step 1: Cooking the Beans

To start the beans put on a pot of salted water to boil.
Strain the beans when done and place into an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Then set aside while you prepare the fish.

Step 2: Cooking the Cod
|
|
Preheat the oven to 350° degrees Fahrenheit. Roughly crush the coriander, then mix with the panko breadcrumbs. Now season both sides of the fish with salt and pepper and bread only one side of the fish with the panko. Heat a medium-sized fry pan over medium high heat. Add the oil and pan fry the cod crust side down and cook until golden brown. Once the crust has turned golden brown flip the fish. Transfer to an oven proof plate and place into the oven. Bake for 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of your fish. While the fish is cooking move on to the next step.

Step 3: Making the Ragout
|
|
Finely chop the garlic and jalapeño. Then dice the tomatoes and de-seed and roughly chop the olives. Heat a fry pan over medium-high heat and add the oil. Fry the garlic and jalapeño for about 30 seconds then add the lima beans, tomatoes, olives and capers and cook for 30 seconds. Then add the wine and bring to a boil. Let the wine reduce by about half. Once the fish is ready, add the basil to the sauce. Spoon a few tablespoons of the sauce over each piece of fish and serve.

Notes
This ragout can also be served with halibut, red snapper or tilapia, in fact it would be good with chicken or even served over fresh pasta.

I make it almost every week now but because I have a gluten free diet I make polenta with it instead and pan-fry my fish in corn meal. Very yummy.
I made this lil gem on the weekend but i used halibut instead!
The panko kicks ass -what a quick and delish way to cook fish!
I thought this was absolutely delicious, but I certainly think that two jalapenos would work! Maybe I cooked mine for too long and the spice went away, but I thought this needed that extra bite.
Regardless, it was delicious!
With over 50 kilos of Queen Charlotte Islands white fish, including a lot of ling cod, this recipe is just perfect. The recipe does well with halibut and yelloweye rockfish (red snapper) as well. Very tasty and healthy.
I had a great time making this recipe but it required a lot of quick work. I never got around to doing the suggested couscous.
With a bit more preparation on my part this will be a great one for having people over.
Terrific recipe! The coriander is wonderful with the panko cumbs.
I precooked the ragout (minus the basil) then simply cooked the fish after guests arrived.
The coucous I used is finer than the courser grain pictued here. Are they different?Where can I find Middle Eastern Coucous?
Most specialty food shops will carry middle eastern couscous. Here is a Drill-down to explain the differences between the many varieties of couscous (cut and paste the address into your explorer bar). In Vancouver we pick it up at the Grainery on Granville Island or at Galloways.
