  • 2 pints cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • 1 tablespoon fresh chopped sage
  • 2 lemons thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons capers for garnish

  • Bake for 45 minutes, until the cod flakes apart easily with a fork, then garnish with capers and serve.

Notes

No time to defrost your fish? No problem. You can bake the fish straight from the freezer. Just add a few minutes of cook time and make sure the fish is cooked through before serving.
