Ingredients

  • 2 slices of lean bacon
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup chopped drained canned tomatoes
  • 3 tablespoons medium-dry Sherry
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/8 teaspoon sugar
  • two 6-ounce scrod fillets

Method

  • In a skillet cook the bacon over moderate heat, turning it, until it is crisp, transfer it with tongs to paper towels to drain, and crumble it.
  • Pour all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the skillet and in the remaining fat cook the onion, stirring, until it begins to turn golden.
  • Add the tomatoes, the Sherry, the soy sauce, and the sugar and simmer the sauce for 5 minutes, or until it is thickened.
  • Add the scrod and simmer it, covered, for 4 minutes.
  • Turn the scrod and simmer it, covered, for 4 minutes more, or until it just flakes.
  • Transfer the scod with a slotted spatula to 2 plates and keep warm, covered.
  • (If desired, boil the sauce for 1 minute to thicken it slightly.)
  • Spoon the sauce over the scrod and sprinkle the scrod with the bacon.
