4 oz Orzo Pasta
1 each Zucchini
1 oz Tomato & Chipotle Flavored Butter
1 each Lemon
¼ cup Panko Breadcrumbs
3 tbsp Romesco Sauce (contains almonds)
2 tbsp Mayonnaise
1 oz Sliced Roasted Red Peppers
2 tbsp Crème Fraîche
How to make it
1
Take the butter out to soften. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Bring a medium pot of salted water (3/4 full) to a boil. Rinse and dry all produce. Quarter and deseed the lemon(s). Halve the zucchini lengthwise and thinly slice crosswise. Roughly chop the peppers. In a bowl, combine the romesco sauce, mayonnaise, and the juice of 2 lemon wedges (4 wedges for 4 servings). Taste and season.
2
Pat the fish dry; season both sides with salt and pepper. Line a sheet pan with foil and lightly oil the center. Place the fish on the oiled side. Spread the softened butter on top, then press on the breadcrumbs to adhere. Drizzle with olive oil; season. Roast 8-12 minutes until the breadcrumbs are lightly browned and the fish is cooked through. USDA minimum: 145°F for fish.
3
Add the pasta to the boiling water. Cook stirring occasionally 8-10 minutes until tender. Drain and return to the pot.
4
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a nonstick pan over medium-high. Add the zucchini in an even layer. Cook undisturbed 3-4 minutes until lightly browned; season. Continue stirring occasionally 2-3 minutes until softened. Stir in the juice of the remaining lemon wedges.
5
Add the cooked zucchini, chopped peppers, and creme fraiche to the pot of pasta; stir. Taste and season. Serve the finished pasta topped with the roasted fish. Drizzle with the romesco mayo.
