About

This delicious seafood bake has more than just fish! Fresh white cod is paired with chopped shrimp and bite-sized clams for the perfect trio. Baked over a bed of zucchini noodles, it’s almost just like eating your favorite pesce pasta dish. Now all that’s missing is a glass of white wine!

Ingredients

  • 6 ounce zucchini
  • 4 oz raw atlantic cod
  • 6 medium raw shrimp
  • 1 ounce clams, canned, drained
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 clove garlic
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon italian seasoning
  • 1 gram bay leaf
  • ⅓ cup heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • ½ cup, shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees. Begin by spiraling the zucchini into thin noodles. When done, you can place the zucchini noodles directly into a glass baking dish that has been sprayed.
  2. Prepare the cod, shrimp, canned clams, and garlic clove. The clams can stay whole if they are baby clams, but chop the cod and shrimp (de-veining and peeling the shrimp is necessary). Mince the garlic.
  3. Melt the butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Toss in the proteins and garlic. Cook until the cod is just cooked through – 4-5 minutes.
  4. Toss in the salt, pepper, onion powder, italian seasoning, and bay leaf. Stir until the ingredients are coated.
  5. Pour the cream and lemon juice into the skillet. Stir and let the liquid simmer for another 4-5 minutes. Then, set the pan aside to cool and let the sauce thicken for another 5 minutes off the heat. Remove the bay leaf.
  6. Pour the Pesce sauce over the zucchini noodles in the baking dish. Cover the top of the dish with the parmesan cheese.
  7. Bake the dish for 25 minutes – just enough time for the dish to heat through, soften the zucchini to al dente, and melt the cheese.
  8. Serve on 2 plates and enjoy!
