Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Wash and dice the potatoes and seasonal vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Cod

    Rinse the cod fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a medium pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasonal vegetables and sauté for about 5-7 minutes or until just tender. Season with salt and pepper.

  3. 5

    Prepare the Cod Mixture

    In the same skillet, push the vegetables to the side and add the cod fillets. Pour the white wine over the cod, then add the diced tomatoes, capers, and half of the chopped basil. Cook for about 8-10 minutes, spooning the sauce over the fish occasionally, until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 6

    Finish the Dish

    Once the cod is cooked, sprinkle the remaining basil and grated Parmesan cheese over the top. Cover and let it sit for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese melts.

  5. 7

    Serve

    On a plate, serve a portion of the sautéed vegetables and potatoes, topped with a cod fillet and the Mediterranean sauce. Enjoy your Mediterranean Cod!
