Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (~6 oz each) cod fillets
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes
- 3 cloves (minced) garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup dry white wine
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 0.5 cup (chopped, plus extra for garnish) fresh basil leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 4 pieces (for serving) lemon wedges
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the cod fillets on a large baking dish or rimmed sheet pan. Pat them dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Drizzle the olive oil mixture evenly over the cod fillets, ensuring they are well coated.
Scatter the cherry tomatoes around the cod fillets in the baking dish.
Pour the dry white wine into the baking dish, ensuring it surrounds (but does not cover) the cod fillets.
Sprinkle the chopped basil over the fillets and tomatoes.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the tomatoes.
Roast in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the cod fillets are opaque and flake easily with a fork.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Serve each cod fillet with a generous scoop of roasted tomatoes, additional fresh basil for garnish, and a lemon wedge on the side.
