Description
Hake is the most traditional fish in Portuguese cooking, including this recipe. First the fish is marinated with garlic, lemon, and parsley for a half hour and then it's fried off in a bit of olive oil before combining with white wine and chopped thyme that eventually flavors the sauce. The stock is made with a bouillon cube. Round out the meal with fusilli or your own favorite short pasta shape.
