St Martin's cod! With (sweet) chestnuts of course! Sounds pretty appetizing to me!

  -> Mmmmm Dunno? Who does?
agree  Vanessa Lopes: actually in St. Martin's day portugueses have chestnuts as appetizer, so it is a very creative answer in my opinion, I would add that part com migas de broa

Chesnut’s codfish with broa’s crumbs (broa- the corn bread)


Explanation:
Hi
I don't know if you find out a word for broa, but in this site that I'm sending to you is about bread's recipes and there's a page with some women writting about it and they used lots of names because they didn't know the correct one for broa, they used corn bread, broa, sweet portuguese bread and in the 14 th comment a woman showed a research about it if u are able to see I belive that it would be nice.

Chestnuts (a small misspelling)

I also found out this site that shows chestnuts/marrons as castanha portuguesa, but if you google (chestnuts/marrons), castanha portuguesa and magusto you'll notice through the pictures that they are the same kind of nuts.

Reference: Recipes for dish don't contain chestnuts

Reference information:
I would leave the name as is and give a description with the ingredients. I think the name of the dish is a reference to magustos, or festas populares.

  -> Yes, Bacalhau com castanhas definitely exists, but that's not the name of the dish in question. It's said that the Portuguese have 365 ways to cook cod, after all :) From the same site: http://www.petiscos.com/receita.php?recid=18430&catid=34

Reference: magusto - Restaurante Sinal Vermelho

Reference information:
"Passando das entradas para os pratos principais, no "magusto de bacalhau assado com migas de broa e couve portuguesa" (€11,90), muito boas estas, a posta de gadídeo a necessitar de menos demolha e mais grelha."
http://bairroalto-comerciantes.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archi...

"... e a decidir-me, primeiro, pelo magusto com bacalhau assado e, depois, por um coelho frito em vinha d'alhos com batata frita e amêijoas - não sem antes confortar o estômago com um bom queijinho de ovelha amanteigado com a ajuda de uma boa broa de mistura. O magusto, uma espécie de migas (feitas com couve portuguesa, batata, cebola e alho) estava muito bem conseguido - ao nível do que se encontra pelo Ribatejo, de onde é originário. O bacalhau pecou por excesso de grelha, o que foi pena, uma vez que a posta alta que foi servida prometia."
