Yields2 Servings
Prep Time15 minsCook Time25 minsTotal Time40 mins

 12 oz Wild-caught Cod
 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided (infused olive oil, if desired!)
 6 grape tomatoes, sliced
 6 olives, sliced (Italian, marinated olives if possible!)
  red onion, sliced very thin
  cup fresh parsley, chopped
 freshly ground pepper
 1 pinch fine sea salt OR Himalayan Pink salt

1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lightly oil a glass baking dish.

2

Gently rinse cod under cool water (to remove fishy taste) and pat dry with paper towel (to allow seasonings to adhere).

3

Lightly season cod with freshly ground pepper and pinch of salt. Drizzle 1 tbsp. olive oil over fish.
(I personally enjoy using infused olive oils from The Crescent Olive because they add so much flavor and depth to my cooking!)

4

Place sliced tomatoes, olives, and onions on top of the cod, allowing the extra veggies to overflow onto the bottom of the pan to roast! Next, drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp. of olive oil and sprinkle with fresh parsley.

5

Bake for 20-25 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fish. When the cod flakes easily with a fork, it is ready!
This dish pairs well with brown jasmine rice and broccoli. Use the parsley and olive oil to season the rice for a stellar Mediterranean dish!
