Black Cod with Fennel Chowder and Smoked Oyster PanzanellaElinor Carucci

The rich chowder serves as a sauce in this dish. At the restaurant, they use house-smoked king clams and panko in the panzanella, which is a modern take on the classic Italian bread salad. If you like, puree equal parts parsley, fennel fronds, and olive oil, then spoon the vibrant green sauce around the fish.
