Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F

  3. To make fish heat oil in a skillet, over medium high heat. Dredge fish or tofu in the Cornmeal mixture and place in the hot skillet, searing until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn over, turn heat down to medium. Cook 2-3 more minutes, and place in a warm oven, until cooked to your desired “done-ness”.
  4. Make the succotash – In a large skillet, heat oil over medium high heat. Add onions, and sauté for 2-3 minutes. Turn heat down to medium, add fava beans and poblano pepper and and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, lowering heat if necessary.
  5. Add garlic, jalapeño, fresh corn and salt and spices and cook 2-3 minutes. Add broth, and simmer until reduced. For extra richness, you could add bacon crumbles or a dollop of butter.
  6. Squeeze a half of a small lime, and fold in the cilantro .
  7. Taste and adjust salt and lime. Turn heat off.
  8. Divide among bowls and place the fish or tofu over top, garnishing with fresh lime and cilantro

Notes

If using tofu, cut into 1-inch slabs, and pat try. Season with extra salt, then dredge.

Fava beans can be prepped ahead. Succotash can be cooked ahead and reheated.
