ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup fresh parsley leaves
- 1⁄2 cup fresh basil leaf
- 1⁄2 cup pine nuts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt
- black pepper, freshly ground
- 4 (4 -6 ounce) cod fish fillets or (4 -6 ounce) other white-fleshed fish
- 2 -3 ounces prosciutto, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons olive oil
directions
- Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a small food processor, combine herbs with pine nuts, enough olive oil to make a thick paste, and salt and pepper. (Alternatively, chop everything fine and combine in a bowl.).
- Season fillets with salt and pepper. Lay two slices of prosciutto on a board, slightly overlapping like fish scales. Smear prosciutto with a layer of herb mixture, then lay fish in center and wrap it up.
- Heat a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes; add butter. When foam subsides, cook fish for a minute on each side, then roast until tender, 5 to 10 minutes depending on thickness. Fillets are done when a thin-bladed knife will pass through their thickest point with little resistance.
