Chef Boy I Be Illinois Ligurian Pasta Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• Combine cod, tomatoes, wine, garlic, oregano, salt and pepper in medium sauce pan. Simmer until fish flakes easily, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, slice potatoes and onion.
• Place half of the potatoes and onion in bottom of greased 10 inch square baking dish, lightly sprinkling with salt and pepper.
• Place flaked cod evenly over the top, and lightly salt and pepper.
• Pour one half of tomato sauce over this.
• Place remaining potatoes and onion on top, sprinkling lightly with salt and pepper, and then the remaining sauce.
• Cover with foil and bake approximately 45 minutes until potatoes are tender.
• Combine breadcrumbs and cheese and sprinkle over top of casserole and bake uncovered 15 minutes more. Can broil for a couple minutes to brown the top if desired.
• Let stand five minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine sage, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 425°F.
• Cut a lengthwise slit down center of tenderloin to within 1/2 inch of bottom. Open tenderloin so lays flat, then on each half make another lengthwise slit down the center to within 1/2 inches of bottom. Cover with wax paper and flatten to 1/4 inch thickness. You can use a meat mallet, or do as I do and save an empty wine bottle with a long neck (usually white wine) so you have a place to hold onto while whacking.
• Spread the flattened tenderloin with the spice mixture from the first step, using your palm to cover the entire surface. Then top the seasoned tenderloin with ham slices, the spinach and spread 1/2 cup Parmigiano-Reggiano over the spinach, leaving a 1-inch border. Starting with a long side, roll up tenderloin so the stuffing is in a spiral pattern; then tie the roasts at 2-inch intervals with kitchen string. I personally think it's easier to use toothpicks rather than string. Lightly season outside with salt and pepper (don't overdo it because the ham and parm are salty).
• Bake uncovered, at 425°F for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°F Transfer to serving platter, and allow to stand for 10 minutes before removing strings (or toothpicks) and slicing into four equal servings.
