Zesty Baked Cod with Burst Tomatoes

How to make it

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grab a medium sized baking dish and lightly grease it or line it with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Pat your cod fillets dry with a paper towel. Place them in the prepared baking dish. Scatter the cherry tomatoes around the fish.

3. 3

   Drizzle the olive oil evenly over the cod and tomatoes. Season generously with salt and pepper to your taste.

4. 4

   Slice the lemon into thin rounds. Arrange a few slices on top of each cod fillet and tuck the remaining slices among the tomatoes.

5. 5

   Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. The tomatoes should be soft and slightly burst.

6. 6

   Remove from the oven. Tear the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the hot fish and tomatoes before serving. Enjoy right away!
