Nicolas-Jay’s Chef Dinner Series brings star power to the Willamette Valley

Southern Fried Rockfish with Roasted Corn Chow Chow

Pair this fried rockfish with Brooks 2024 Ara Riesling. The acid from the wine perfectly cuts the rich fried fish and the bright stone fruit flavors of the wine pair nicely with the acidic and sweet flavors of the chow chow. Chow chow is a delicious Southern relish made with cabbage and green tomato that complements many dishes.
