"Lombo de corvina suado sobre caldeirada de legumes". From a restaurant menu. I know we 'sweat' onion and root vegetables, but do we really sweat fish?

poached
From all the "suado" recipes I found this seems to mean cooking in liquid.
Poached is probably the best term, but I also found some recipes using "suado" where the fish was wrapped in aluminum foil together with the other ingredients, like olive oil and seasoning and then cooked in the oven. According to my cookbooks this is called oven steamed.

Sweat
You sweat almost everything. If you put something in a pan, cover it but not completely, it will sweat.

steamed / sweated off
it's like Leila says, but in a culinary context sweat can sound a little off putting!
steamed over a vegetable stew
sweated off over mixed vegetables
something like that will do it.

: I think 'steamed' sounds better, since usually fish is steamed over vegetables.
