If black cod isn't available, a firm white fish, such as halibut or barramundi, would also work well.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

3 dried ancho chiles*
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup honey
2 garlic cloves
3 tablespoons tamarind concentrate
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons dry mustard
4 6-ounce black cod fillets, with or without skin

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat chiles over gas flame or in broiler until softened, turning often with tongs to avoid burning, 1 to 2 minutes. Cool. Remove stems and seeds. Tear chiles into 2-inch pieces; place in small bowl. Add 1/2 cup hot water. Let stand until softened, about 20 minutes. Place chiles with soaking liquid, orange juice, and next 6 ingredients in blender. Puree until smooth. Strain into small saucepan; discard solids in strainer. Simmer uncovered over medium-low heat until slightly thickened and glaze measures 1 1/3 cups, about 10 minutes. Season glaze with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

    Step 2

    Preheat broiler. Sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper. Broil until brown, about 2 minutes per side. Spoon 1 tablespoon glaze over each fillet; sprinkle with pepper. Broil until just cooked through and glaze is bubbling, about 2 minutes. Top with Habanero-Orange Salsa; serve immediately.

  2. Step 3

    * Available at many supermarkets and at specialty foods stores and Latin markets.
