OVEN-STEAMED COD OR MAHI MAHI IN GREEN TOMATILLO SALSA
I love tomatillo sauce with a range of fish, from salmon to shellfish to the lighter fish I am focused on this week. I used cod for my recipe tests.

Steps:
- Place the tomatillos in a saucepan, fill with water and bring to a simmer. Simmer 10 minutes. Drain and place in a blender. Add the chiles, chopped onion, garlic, salt and cilantro. Blend until smooth.
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy saucepan or skillet over medium-high heat. Drizzle in a drop of the tomatillo purée to test the heat. If it sizzles and sputters immediately, the oil is hot enough. Add the tomatillo purée, and stir constantly until it thickens and begins to stick to the pan, about 5 minutes. When you run your spoon down the middle of the pan it should leave a canal. Stir in the stock, bring to a simmer, and simmer 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often, until it has reduced by about a quarter and coats the front and the back of a spoon like cream. Keep warm.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper and lay on the foil. Place a pan of just boiled water on the floor of your oven and place the baking sheet with the fish in the oven on the middle rack. Bake 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque on the surface and you can pull it apart with a fork. Remove from the heat, transfer to plates or a platter, and spoon on the sauce. Garnish with cilantro and lemon or lime wedges, and serve. You will have some sauce left over.

AVOCADO AND ROASTED TOMATILLO SALSA
I have been making tomatillo and avocado salsa for years, but I usually simmer the tomatillos rather than roasting them. Roasting the tomatillos, chiles and garlic - toasting really, as I use a skillet for this, on top of the flame - produces a salsa with a delicious charred flavor. I learned something recently from the chef Iliana de la Vega, who demonstrated the recipe at the "Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives" conference in Napa Valley in March: she says, in no uncertain terms, that you should not add water to tomatillo salsas. Without the water, this is a more intense salsa with pleasing density.You can use it as a sauce to serve with chicken or fish, or as a dip with chips or other vegetables.

Steps:
- Heat a heavy cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Place tomatillos in pan and toast until charred on 1 side, about 10 minutes for a medium or large tomatillo. The color in the middle should be fading from pale green to olive. Turn tomatillos over and continue to grill until charred on the other side, about 10 minutes, but not for so long that they burst. Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool.
- Place chile(s), garlic clove and onion slice in skillet and toast, turning often, until chile is lightly charred and garlic is charred in spots and softened. The onion should be lightly colored on both sides but not charred black (that will make it bitter). Remove from heat. Peel the garlic and transfer, with the onion and chiles, to a blender. Add tomatillos and any liquid that may have accumulated in the bowl.
- Add remaining ingredients to blender and blend until smooth. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve.

Steps:
- 1. Prepare the avocado sauce. Cover and refrigerate. Season the fish lightly with salt and pepper. 2. In a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil and butter over medium-high heat. Cook the fish about 3 to 4 minutes per side, until it is golden brown on the outside, opaque but still moist inside, and just barely flakes when tested with a fork. Serve hot, with the sauce spooned on top. Garnish with cilantro or parsley. Pass the remaining sauce at the table.From "1,000 Mexican Recipes." Copyright 2001 by Marge Poore.

- Preheat broiler. Place tomatillos, chiles, and garlic on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil, tossing once, until tomatillos are blistered in spots and starting to release some juices, 7–10 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and cover. Let sit until tomatillos are softened, about 5 minutes. Uncover and let sit until cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
- Remove skins from chiles if desired and peel garlic; place in a molcajete or mortar and pestle along with cumin seeds and a pinch of salt. Grind until smooth. (Or you can use a blender if you grind the cumin seeds before adding.) Add tomatillos and grind until a coarse purée forms. Stir in spring onion, cilantro, and oregano. Season with more salt if needed; squeeze in lime juice to taste if desired.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sprinkle in cumin seeds. Season salmon with salt; arrange, skin side down, in skillet. Reduce heat to medium and cook, pressing down gently on fish, until skin is golden brown and crisp, 6–8 minutes. Turn over; cook until just cooked through, about 4 minutes.
- Divide salmon among plates; spoon salsa over. Scatter some oregano and cilantro on top. Serve with avocado and lime wedges alongside.
