SMOKY HAKE, BEANS & GREENS
Ingredients
- mild olive oil
- ½ x 200g pack raw cooking chorizo (we used Unearthed Alfresco Smoked)
- 1 onion , finely chopped
- 260g bag spinach
- 2 x 140g skinless hake fillets
- ½ tsp sweet smoked paprika
- 1 red chilli, deseeded and shredded
- 400g can cannellini beans , drained
- juice ½ lemon
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
To serve
- Quick garlic mayonnaise (optional)
How to Make
1.Boil a full kettle of water and heat the grill to high. Heat 1 tsp oil in a large frying pan. Squeeze the meat from the chorizo directly into the pan. Add the onion and fry for 5 mins, crushing the meat with a spatula until broken up, golden and surrounded by its juices. The onion will also be soft and golden.
2.Meanwhile, put the spinach in a colander, slowly pour over the boiled water to wilt it, then run under the cold tap. Squeeze out the excess water using your hands, then set aside. Line a baking tray with foil, rub with a little oil and place the fish on top. Season, sprinkle over the smoked paprika and drizzle with a little more oil.
3.Tip the chilli into the pan with the sausages, fry for 1 min more, then add the beans, spinach, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Let it warm through gently, then season to taste.
4.Grill the fish for 5 mins or until flaky but not dry – you won’t need to turn it. Spoon the bean mixture onto plates, then carefully top with the fish and any juices from the tray. Serve with a dollop of Quick garlic mayonnaise (see recipe, right), if you like and enjoy.
