Crostini

Method

Prepare the Crostini

  1. 1

    Toast the Baguette

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil and toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

  2. 2

    Add Garlic Flavor

    Once toasted, remove the baguette slices from the oven and rub the cut side of the halved garlic clove over the top of each slice for added flavor.

Prepare the Sauce

  1. 3

    Sauté Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. 4

    Cook Tomatoes

    Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.

  3. 5

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for about 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.

  4. 6

    Add Remaining Ingredients

    Stir in the chopped basil, capers, black olives, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Cook the Seafood

  1. 7

    Add the Shrimp and Cod

    Gently add the black tiger shrimp and pacific cod fillet to the skillet. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the shrimp are pink and opaque, and the cod is cooked through.

Serve the Dish

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    Serve the seafood and sauce hot over the toasted crostini, spooning extra sauce on top for flavor.

  2. 9

    Garnish

    Optional: garnish with extra fresh basil before serving.
