Trout with Sticky Rice, Zucchini And Pine Nuts

Swordfish With Bread Crumb Salsa

Asparagus With Red and Yellow Coulis

Skewered Swordfish And Zucchini

Stir-Fried Baby Squash, Long Beans, Corn and Chiles With Soba Noodles
Long beans stir-fry more quickly than regular green beans because they have a thinner husk, but if you can’t find long beans you can use regular ones, like Blue Lakes. I used purple long beans for this stir-fry but green ones will work as well. Make sure to drain and dry the vegetables on several thicknesses of paper towels after you wash them so that they sear properly.

Fish and Vegetables

Portuguese-Style Steamed Mussels

Wok-Seared Cod With Mushrooms and Peas
Stir-fry is a great weeknight staple: fast, alive with flavor and bendable to whatever is in your refrigerator or freezer. Here, mushrooms, scallions and peas, flavored with that feisty duo of garlic and ginger, are quickly cooked (there is no other way in a stir-fry) and then pushed aside in the wok before the fish is added. The naturally flaky cod would fall apart if it were tossed around, so it is seared and turned once. Finally, everything is gently stirred together with peas and a mixture of broth, soy sauce and rice wine, which glazes the fish and vegetables. Serve piping hot, with rice or soba noodles that ideally have been cooked while you prepped the ingredients for the stir-fry. A 12-inch stainless steel skillet can stand in for a wok, though it does not perform as well.

Spaghetti With Swordfish

Steamed Cod With Favas and Aioli
This delightful combination was a result of having enough leftover uncooked cod, aioli and cooked shelled favas for one person (me) the day after I’d made a fish soup for a dinner party. Now I think I might serve the improvised dish at my next dinner party.

Soba Noodles With Tofu, Shiitake Mushrooms and Broccoli
I like to use soba for this dish. The buckwheat noodles have a nutty flavor and contribute a measure of all-important whole grain to the dish.

Broiled Halibut Steaks, Nicoise

Spicy Pork Stew With Hominy and Collard Greens
I’ve long adored hominy, the earthy dried corn kernels you find in pozole, the chile-laced Mexican stew. When I saw dried heirloom hominy for sale online, I bought some. I knew that having it in the cupboard when a hominy craving struck was the best insurance against cheating and buying the canned version. Like dried beans, dried hominy needs a good long soak and a lengthy cooking. But there’s nothing difficult about the process. Many pozole recipes call for the finished stew to be garnished with shredded cabbage. But after bingeing on cabbage recently, I decided to take a different route, and stirred slivered collard greens into the pot at the end of cooking. They turned silky and soft and offered a nice contrast to the chewy hominy, the brawny pork and the spicy thick broth.

Pacific Cod Ceviche
I often use cod for ceviche, one of my favorite ways to enjoy seafood. The cod that gets the Environmental Defense Fund’s highest rating is Pacific cod.

Halibut, Chard and Potato Casserole
This is based on a comforting Majorcan dish that is traditionally made with hake, a fish that isn’t as easy to find here as halibut or Arctic char, both of which I’ve used for the dish. Pacific halibut is the type that gets the Environmental Defense Fund’s highest rating. Make sure to cover this tightly so the fish doesn’t dry out. An hour seems like a long time to cook fish, but the fish is well insulated and won’t dry out.

Summer Aioli Feast
In Provence an aioli feast is not just a summer affair. But I love to throw an aioli party in the summer, when my guests and I can sit outside and enjoy the endless array of fish and vegetables with chilled rosé. Sometimes it’s a potluck, and each guest brings a vegetable or fish to eat with the aioli. Traditionally the fish would be poached, but if you’re outside with the grill going, go ahead and grill it (though that would require more olive oil, and the whole point of this garlic mayonnaise feast is to serve the mayonnaise with plainly cooked foods). The vegetables are traditionally boiled, but I prefer steaming most of them. Use this list of vegetables to guide you, but rely on the market when you make your choice. You don’t have to serve everything on the list.

Chipotle Chili Sauce

Seared Fish With Beet Salsa
I made this with cod, but you can also use a firmer fish, which you can grill or broil as well as sear and bake, as I do in this recipe. Cut the beets and apple very small – about 1/8 inch dice. The sweet crunch of the apple contributes texture and juice to the tangy/pungent salsa, which is delicious with all sorts of foods, not just fish. If you’re vegetarian or vegan, try it with grains; it’s especially nice with red quinoa.

Pickled Bluefish Salad With Greens and Cherry Tomatoes

Cod and Clams in Coconut Nage
This dish needs only 20 minutes of attention at the stove. The coconut nage delivers a whisper of sweetness, ginger-chile heat and a splash of lime, and the broth is light enough to suit a summer dinner with plenty of chilled wine. I paired it with the best of Mâconnais, wines that express citrus and minerals balanced by a touch of grapy richness. I served sautéed sugar snap peas alongside, on separate plates.

Figs and Blueberries In Citrus Broth

Maya Citrus Salsa With Red Snapper
Xec (pronounced “shek”) is a sweet, sour, juicy citrus salsa from Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula, and it makes a brilliant match with almost any kind of fish, cooked almost any kind of way. The combination here — orange, grapefruit, lemon — is not traditional to Mayan cooking, nor is it a mandate. Add lime if you have it, a bitter orange if you can find it. Don’t skip the minced habanero, though, which adds a bit of heat and yet more flavor. The fish starts on the stove for a few minutes, and is soon moved to the oven to finish cooking, for a total time of less than 10 minutes.

Tomato Salad With Turkish Tahini Dressing
If tomatoes are unavailable, use this popular Turkish dressing with steamed vegetables or a green salad.

Warm Chickpeas and Greens With Vinaigrette
In the mountainous regions of Provence, frugal farmers make a meal of chickpeas and spinach or chard. They cook the greens in a big pot of water, then use the same water for cooking the chickpeas. While the chickpeas simmer, the farmers make a vinaigrette and use that to season the chickpeas and greens.
