Notes

  • The more you cook the crushed tomatoes the sweeter they will be - if you don’t want to add sugar just add a bit more water and cook on low for 10-20 minutes more.
  • Cook the cod in the oil but don’t over cook, remove when they are still a bit raw in the middle, so they can finish cooking with the sauce.

Instructions

  • Clean the cod filets and pat them dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper. Cover them loosely with flour.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet to medium and add the olive oil.
  • Place the filets skin side up and let them cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until golden; reserve.
  • In the same oil (or adding a bit more if needed) add the garlic and onion. Cook for about 7 minutes, just until the onion is translucent.
  • Add the crushed tomatoes and sugar, bring to a simmer and cook on low for about 15 minutes—taste to adjust salt and pepper.
  • Place the cod filets back in the skillet and let them cook for around 7 more minutes.
  • Serve with fresh parsley.
