Cod in Fresh Tomato Basil Sauce

This fish has so much flavor + simple to prepare. Serve with fresh asparagus and lemon rice! Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

• 2 Tbsps avocado oil, or olive oil
  
• 1 1/2 lbs. fresh cod, cut into 4 fillets (or four 6 ounce fillets)
  
• sea salt and pepper
  
• 2 Tbsps avocado oil, or olive oil
  
• 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  
• 2 fresh garlic cloves, minced
  
• 1 pint cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
  
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
  
• 1/2 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
  
• 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  
• 1/2 tsp fresh lemon zest
  
• 1/2 tsp sea salt 
• 1/4 tsp fresh ground black pepper 

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees f.

Heat oil in a large oven-safe sauté pan over medium heat. Add crushed red pepper flakes and garlic and sauté for 1 minute, or until garlic is fragrant.

Add the cherry tomatoes and cook, stirring, until they’re soft and blistering, but still hold their shape, about 4 minutes.

Add in the white wine, stir, and allow the mixture to come to a light simmer.

Stir in the fresh basil, lemon juice, lemon zest, salt, and pepper and cook for 2 more minutes. Transfer the sauce into a bowl and set aside.

Heat remaining oil in a large oven-safe sauté pan over medium heat.

Season both sides of cod with salt and pepper. Place cod in the oil and cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes.

Carefully flip the cod over and pour the white wine tomato basil sauce over the cod, then place the pan in the oven to continue cooking for another 3 minutes, or until just cooked through, and flaky.

Serve hot.

Enjoy!
