Bacalao Al Pil Pil Cod In Garlic Sauce

I'd be happy to help you learn about Bacalao al Pil Pil, also known as cod in garlic sauce! This dish is a classic of Spanish cuisine and is known for its rich, savory flavor.

To make Bacalao al Pil Pil, you will need the following ingredients:

Here's how to prepare the dish:

1. Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

2. Heat the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-low heat. When the oil is hot, add the sliced garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is golden brown and crispy.

3. Use a slotted spoon to remove the garlic from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.

4. Carefully add the cod fillets to the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan (cook the fillets in batches if necessary). Cook the fillets for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and flake easily with a fork.

5. When the fillets are cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove them from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.

6. Stir the paprika and cayenne pepper into the oil in the skillet.

7. Return the garlic to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes, or until the garlic is heated through.

8. To serve, place a cod fillet on each plate and spoon the garlic sauce over the top. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Bacalao al Pil Pil is typically served with crusty bread, which is perfect for soaking up the rich, flavorful sauce. I hope you enjoy trying this delicious dish! Let me know if you have any other questions.
