Ingredients

Directions

  1. If needed, use a sharp knife to cut the cod into 6-7 oz fillets, slightly larger than a deck of cards. Season the cod and shrimp with a pinch of kosher salt
  2. Line a large sauté pan or braiser with two layers of parchment paper
  3. Add the sliced onion and garlic to the pan along with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat
  4. Layer the cod, shrimp, and cherry tomatoes over the onions and garlic
  5. In a bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, sofrito, and chicken broth. Pour the mixture over the seafood, then top with the cilantro and sliced chilis
  6. Cover the pan and place it over medium heat. Once the liquid reaches a gentle simmer, reduce the heat to low and cook for 15-20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish, until the cod is flaky and the shrimps are cooked through
  7. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and serve over rice
