I received fresh catch samples from Sitka Salmon Shares to review. I received no further compensation. All opinions are my own.
Cod with Creamy Roasted Garlic Shrimp Sauce serves tender, flaky baked cod covered with a creamy, smoky garlic sauce. Chunks of shrimp add a briny flavor to the sauce.
I’m so happy to introduce a wonderful fresh catch fish company to you that is family owned and practices sustainable harvest of Alaskan wild fish.

This cod filet baked beautifully. I know it would taste equally good pan fried, breaded or deep fried.
My creamy roasted garlic sauce has a pinch of smoked paprika and smoked salt which compliments seafood so well.
**To roast garlic, preheat oven to 350. Cut stem end off garlic, rub with oil, wrap in foil and bake until cloves are soft and golden brown. (about 30 minutes)
I served this dish over multigrain rice and added peas to make it a complete meal. It would work just as well alone or with your favorite side.

Which Alaskan fish is your favorite? I’d love to hear your thoughts in a comment below!
I have a small food processor. If you have a smaller version too, process in two batches.
Salt and pepper your roast on all sides. Spoon on 1/2 cup of the pesto. Place your roast in a preheated 450 oven and start the Roast Perfect timer.
Always test your roast with a good internal thermometer for accurate doneness.
