Let's Cook!

Step 1

For the Romesco sauce, blend the roasted red peppers, almonds, garlic, bread, sherry vinegar, and smoked paprika in a food processor until combined. While the processor is running, slowly pour in the olive oil until the mixture becomes a thick sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

Step 2

Preheat the grill to a high heat. Brush the cod steaks with olive oil and season them with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Place the cod steaks on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 4

Serve the grilled cod steaks with a generous spoonful of the Romesco sauce, garnished with fresh parsley and a wedge of lemon.
