Lemon Garlic Cod with Blistered Cherry Tomatoes

Pan-seared cod fillets finished with garlic, lemon and tomatoes burst in olive oil.

Ingredients

• 12 oz cod, 2 fillets
• 3 tbsp olive oil
• 3 clove garlic, sliced
• 1 1/2 cup cherry tomato
• 1 lemon, zested and juiced
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper

Steps

1. Pat the cod dry and season with half the salt and the pepper.
2. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the cod 3 to 4 minutes per side until it flakes and reaches 145 F (63 C) inside, then move it to a plate.
3. Lower the heat to medium, add the remaining oil, garlic and tomatoes and cook 4 minutes, pressing a few tomatoes so they burst.
4. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice and remaining salt, return the cod to the pan for 1 minute, and finish with parsley.
