Directions:

  1. Poached Cod: In stockpot or steam kettle, combine broth, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, garlic, bay leaves and peppercorns; bring to boil. Reduce heat to low simmer. Poach fish fillets for 8 to 10 minutes or until fish is just cooked through. Using slotted spoon, carefully transfer fish to paper towels to remove excess moisture. Hold for service.

  2. Crispy Potatoes: Preheat oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Toss together potatoes, oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Arrange in single layer on parchment paper­–lined baking sheet; bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  3. Salad: Whisk together oil, vinegar, shallots, mustard, salt and pepper; toss with potatoes, tomatoes, arugula and capers. Hold for service.

  4. For each serving, plate 1 cup/250 mL/150 g salad. Top with 4 oz fish. Garnish with scant teaspoonful of chives.

Tip: For extra-crispy potatoes, use a convection oven.
