Slow-Cooked White Fish with Charred Cabbage

Recipe Description

This Slow-Cooked White Fish with Charred Cabbage is a delicious quick meal to make. You can make this with any firm white fish that you prefer. I often use cod or halibut but you can see what your local fish shop has in stock. It’s called slow cooked, but remember that fish cooks quickly so even 15 minutes is slow for fish! 

Start making this by placing the fish on a parchment lined baking sheet. While the fish bakes in the oven, prepare the cabbage. Cook the cabbage until it is half charred. I find it is best not to move the cabbage leaves as they cook. Once the cabbage and fish is cooked, peel the grapefruit and remove the pith. Slice into rounds and assemble the dish, starting with cabbage, then grapefruit and topped with fish and garnished with mint and olive oil. 

To make Slow-Cooked White Fish with Charred Cabbage, you will need the following ingredients:

I tried this fish recipe for a cozy dinner with my hubby. Super quick to whip up, and the charred cabbage just hits differently, right? Used cod since it was fresh at the market. So good with grapefruit too. It was such a satisfying meal, totally impressed!
