Ingredients:
- 4 (6 oz / 170g) Cod fillets (skinless)
- 2 tbsp (30ml) Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp (2g) Smoked paprika
- ½ tsp (3g) Sea salt
- ¼ tsp (1g) Cracked black pepper
- 2 cups (300g) Cherry tomatoes, halved
- ½ cup (75g) Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
- 2 tbsp (30g) Capers, drained
- 3 cloves (9g) Garlic, thinly sliced
- 1 lemon (half sliced into rounds, half juiced)
- 2 tbsp (8g) Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp (15ml) Extra virgin olive oil
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a 9x13 inch baking dish with parchment paper.
- In the baking dish, toss the halved cherry tomatoes, olives, capers, and sliced garlic with 1 tbsp (15ml) of olive oil, spreading them into an even layer.
- Pat the cod fillets bone-dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tbsp (30ml) of olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, then brush the mixture evenly over all sides of the fillets.
- Nestle the fillets atop the tomato mixture and place a lemon slice on each piece of fish.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes until the tomatoes have burst and the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove from the oven, drizzle with fresh lemon juice, and scatter the chopped parsley over the top.
