Brown Butter Cod
with Corn, Shishito Peppers & Purple Potatoes
45 MIN
2 Servings
From the Test Kitchen
In tonight’s colorful, seasonal recipe, we’re basting our cod with a brown butter sauce, balanced with a splash of sherry vinegar. This sauce also dresses a hearty side of sautéed vegetables—including delicious shishito peppers. A Japanese variety, shishitos (which tend to be mild, but can be hot!) add incredibly satisfying texture to the dish, completed by the herbaceous lift of fresh oregano.

1
Prepare the ingredients:
Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut the potatoes into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Cut off and discard the stem ends of the peppers; halve the peppers on an angle. Peel and mince the garlic and shallot. Remove and discard the husks and silks of the corn. Cut the corn kernels off the cob; discard the cob. Pick the oregano leaves off the stems; discard the stems.
2
Cook the potatoes:
In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the potatoes in a single, even layer; season with salt and pepper. Cook 5 to 7 minutes on the first side, or until browned. Flip and season with salt and pepper. Cook 3 to 5 minutes, or until browned and tender. Transfer to a large bowl and set aside in a warm place. Wipe out the pan.
3
Cook the peppers:
In the same pan, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until browned and softened; season with salt and pepper. Transfer to the bowl of cooked potatoes. Wipe out the pan.
4
Cook the corn:
In the same pan, heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the garlic and shallot; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until softened and fragrant. Add the corn; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned and slightly softened. Add half the oregano and cook, stirring occasionally, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant. Transfer to the bowl of cooked potatoes and peppers. Rinse and wipe out the pan.
5
Cook the cod & make the brown butter sauce:
Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper on both sides. In the same pan, heat the butter and 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until melted and hot. Add the seasoned fillets and cook 2 to 3 minutes on the first side, or until browned. Flip and add the vinegar (be careful, as the vinegar may splatter). Cook, occasionally spooning the sauce over the fillets, 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly coated and cooked through. Transfer to a plate, leaving the sauce in the pan.
6
Dress the vegetables & plate your dish:
Add the brown butter sauce to the bowl of cooked vegetables. Toss to thoroughly coat; season with salt and pepper to taste. Divide the dressed vegetables between 2 dishes. Top with the cooked cod fillets. Garnish with the remaining oregano. Enjoy!
