    Method

    • How to Make Haddock with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
    • Pat haddock fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper
    • In a small saucepan, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat
    • Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute
    • Add diced roasted red pepper and smoked paprika, stirring for another minute
    • Pour in dry white wine, simmer for 2–3 minutes to reduce liquid slightly
    • Add chicken or vegetable stock, bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3–4 minutes
    • Remove sauce from heat and blend until smooth using an immersion blender or pitcher blender
    • Whisk in 1 tablespoon butter until the sauce is glossy, adjust seasoning with salt and pepper
    • Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat
    • Add haddock fillets, skin-side down (if skin-on), and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until opaque and flaky
    • Remove haddock from pan, rest briefly
    • Gently reheat the blended red pepper sauce if necessary, whisk in final tablespoon of butter for silkiness
    • Plate haddock fillets on warm plates
    • Spoon roasted red pepper sauce generously over or under the fillets
    • Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and lemon wedges on the side
    • Serve immediately, ideally with a side of simply roasted vegetables or steamed greens for balance
