Bacalao al pil-pil: quality ingredients, patience, and a gentle touch. There’s no rushing here—just good cod, olive oil, garlic, and chili, slowly brought together over low heat, just like in northern Spain. This is a recipe for bread, quiet, and pure enjoyment.

Steps

1 hour
  1. 1

    Slice the garlic cloves and sauté them in a little olive oil until golden. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat the olive oil and add about three garlic cloves. Once the oil is hot, lower the heat and place the cod fillets skin side up. Cook for about 5 minutes (the exact time depends on the thickness of the fillets). Keep the heat low so the cod releases its juices.

    Remove the fillets. Let the oil cool slightly, then use a strainer to gently move the pan and oil until the oil emulsifies and forms the classic thick green Pil Pil sauce.
