Garbanzos and Flaked Fish

Seafood alternatives: halibut, orange roughy

Ingredients:

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 Tbsp. chopped onion
• 1 clove garlic, minced or pressed
• 1/2 pound cod or other firm mild fish, cut into bite-size pieces
• 1 can (15 1/2 oz.) garbanzo beans, drained, rinsed and drained again
• 1/4 cup minced parsley
• 2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar
• 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/8 tsp. salt
• 1/8 tsp. pepper

Cooking Instructions:

Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until the onion is soft. Add the fish and sauté until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Transfer the fish and onion mixture to a large bowl and add the drained garbanzo beans and half the parsley.

Combine the remaining olive oil, vinegar, cumin, salt and pepper in a jar with a tight-fitting lid, shake well and taste for seasoning. Pour the dressing over the fish mixture and stir to mix. Cover and chill, stirring occasionally, for up to 24 hours. Stir in the remaining parsley just before serving, taste for seasoning and serve at room temperature or slightly chilled.
