Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 medium red onion; 1 bunch fresh cilantro; 4 tablespoons olive oil; 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped; 1 1/2 pounds cod fillet; 1 egg; 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; 1 cup finely crushed tortilla chips (from 3 cups chips); 2 oranges, peeled and thinly sliced into circles

Servings: persons

1 medium red onion
1 bunch fresh cilantro
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1 1/2 pounds cod fillet
1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup finely crushed tortilla chips (from 3 cups chips)
2 oranges, peeled and thinly sliced into circles

1
Heat oven to 350u00b0 F.
2
Finely chop enough onion to measure 3/4 cup and enough cilantro stems to measure 1 tablespoon (reserving the leaves).
3
Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, cilantro stems, and jalapeno and cook until softened, 4 minutes.
4
Pulse the cod, egg, salt, pepper, and the onion mixture in a food processor until combined but not pureed. Form 8 cod cakes. Coat each cake with the chips.
5
Wipe out skillet. Heat 1 tablespoon of the remaining oil over medium heat. Add 4 cakes and cook until golden brown, 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a baking sheet. Wipe out skillet and repeat with 1 tablespoon of the remaining oil and the last 4 cakes. Bake until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
6
Thinly slice the remaining onion. Toss with the oranges, 1/2 cup of the cilantro leaves, and the remaining oil. Serve with the cakes.
7
Cilantro stems have a mild though distinct flavor. Use them when you want a slightly less pungent cilantro presence than you'd get from the leaves.
