Ingredients

  • 1 lb fresh boneless cod
  • 1 28oz can chopped tomatoes

Preparation:

Cut codfish into 4 sections. Season with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Set aside to marinate for a few minutes.

In a skillet, add tomatoes, sliced roasted pepper, butter, chicken stock, wine and let simmer on medium heat for around 5-10 minutes, stirring often, to absorb flavors.

Arrange fish evenly in skillet. Cover the fish with the tomatoes/sauce. Cook for 5 minutes, stir (gently to not break up the fish) and cover with lid. Cook on medium heat for an additional 8-10 minutes or until codfish is flaky and white.
