About
This simple cod dish is packed with flavor and perfect for a simple mid week meal.
The cod is served on a bed of spinach combined with crisp pancetta and salty capers. This would work well alongside a portion of buttery cauliflower mash.
Ingredients
- 2 fillet – each 4 ounce raw cod, cooked from fresh
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 cup, cut pieces baby spinach
- 1 clove garlic
- 6 ounce diced pancetta by waitrose
- ½ tablespoon, whole pieces capers
- ⅛ teaspoon salt, sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and arrange a large piece of foil across and shallow oven tray.
- Lay the cod fillets on the foil. Season and drizzle over the olive oil. Wrap the foil up around the fish to create a parcel and bake for 15 minutes or until opaque and tender.
- Whilst the cod is cooking, heat the remaining olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and add the pancetta. Cook until browned all over.
- Mince the garlic and roughly chop the capers. Add them to the pan with the pancetta, frying gently until fragrant.
- Add the spinach to the pan and stir into the pancetta until just wilted.
- Serve the baked cod on top of the pancetta and caper spinach.
