If you’ve never tried corvina before, you are in for a treat. It is a very mild-tasting fish that is almost sweet and has a wonderful buttery texture. A few years ago, I made this corvina recipe with coconut curry sauce. It was a big hit with everyone who tried it and before I knew it, people were asking for more corvina recipes.

Baked corvina fish recipe

I make a new corvina recipe about once a month for clients, but I’ve been totally remiss about sharing them with you guys. I’m sorry! The more I talk to the people I cook for, the more I’m realizing that corvina has become the favorite, pretty much across the board.

a mild flavored fish like corvina is great for people who don’t like fishy-tasting fish

It is very mild, so the folks who don’t love a strong-flavored fish (like salmon) really like it, as well as the people who love all seafood.

How to cook corvina

Baking corvina in the oven is one of the easiest ways to cook fish. I love a piece of pan fried corvina, but sometimes I don’t want to stand over the stove. Those nights call for baked fish.

To bake your fish, season both sides of your corvina. Place your portions on a parchment-lined sheet pan or in a baking dish. Add tomatoes, olives, capers and white wine to the pan, then bake. It is that easy.

You can flavor your fish with anything that suits your mood, but my go-to’s are usually white wine, butter and lemon or this tomato, olive and caper combination. It gives the corvina a ton of flavor and makes a delicious topping for your baked fish.

If you are surfing the internet, you may see “silver corvina recipes”. It is essentially the same thing. There are a few names for corvina, it is sometimes called drum or croaker.

This Atlantic fish is low in mercury, it is on the “good list“, plus it is low in calories and saturated fat. This recipe clocks in at about 150 calories, so that is a big win in my book for something so delicious. It also makes delicious corvina tacos!

Corvina has become a bit more popular and thus, has become easier to find. I always see it at my store, but if you don’t, ask! I’m sure they’d be happy to order it for you.

Make it a meal

Here are a few recipes to round out the baked corvina and make it meal.
• Melting potatoes with garlic and herbs – easy side and so delicious!
• Veggie cakes – one of the best ways to get kiddos to eat vegetables
• Oven roasted vegetable pasta – a hearty side that can double as dinner on its own
• No bake strawberry cheesecake bars – a tasty and incredibly easy dessert for summer and strawberry lovers

Helpful tools for making baked corvina:

• fish spatula – this is the same one I own. I love this spatula and use it for much more than fish.
• commercial sheet pans – sheet pans that won’t warp in the oven
• parchment paper – lining the sheet pans keeps your food from sticking!
• boning knife – a thin, flexible blade that is useful when working with chicken, beef or fish.
• white platter – I always plate food on white platters, it shows off your hard work!

Pan seared corvina with sliced potatoes and a tomato coconut curry sauce make a great midweek meal.

Curry seems to be one of those flavors that people feel very strongly about. They either love it or they hate it, there’s not much middle ground. I’m in the “love it” camp. Just the smell of curry makes my heart flutter.

A long, long time ago in a city far, far away when I was in culinary school, we would wander the streets of NYC and more often than not we ended up in an area of Manhattan that had lots of spice shops and Indian restaurants. I think that’s where my love of curry was born.

Doing My Part to Prevent Scurvy…

January 23, 2012

Every now and then I buy random things and hope I can make something good with the various items that have found their way into my cart. Once in a while I’ll stumble upon something magnificent, on (thankfully rare) occasions it’s been a disaster, in which case the pizzeria is on speed dial and more often than not it’s pretty good, although I’m in no way getting sassy about it…
One of the ingredients that found their way home with me were finger limes.

They are rather interesting… inside the lime are little pearls that resemble caviar. It’s a great garnish for fish, drinks, hors d’oeuvres or even desserts.

A beautiful piece of wild grouper had also found its way home with me in my ever-present quest for eating healthier, so this was my jumping off point. A couple of years ago, on a trip to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic I had grouper grilled on the beach and that is where my love for this fish was born.

Cod & Tapenade

May 9, 2011

Some things just go together… peanut butter & jelly, bacon & eggs, mashed potatoes & gravy, champagne & … hell, ANYTHING.

For me, another one of those pairings is fish and any kind of salty condiment. I love salt. I know it isn’t good for you in excess, but I can’t help it. There are at least 8 different kinds of salt in my kitchen at this very moment. Smoked Salt, Truffle Salt, Hawaiian Pink Salt, French Sea Salt, Kosher Salt, Maldon Salt, Australian Pink Flake Salt, Sel Gris, but NEVER idiodized table salt.

I am not alone in this near-obsession. As is the case with most Chefs, we have a salty palate. What I mean by that is we are so accustomed to highly seasoned food that for the average person it can be a bit too salty. (My Mom used to tease me that she was going to buy me a salt lick at the feed store by our house).

To feed my addiction, I made olive tapenade. It is one of the most delicious things and it will keep in your refrigerator for over a week. It can be eaten on its own: spread of a piece of warm, toasted baguette, or use it as a flavoring on a piece of fish for example. Luckily for me I have a great fishmonger a few blocks away, which brings me back to some things just go together… Fish loves salt. It doesn’t have to come from actual salt, it can come from bacon, capers or olive tapenade! If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. Where do fish live? (in salty ocean water…)
