Ingredients
  

For the Cod
  • 4 fillets Cod Ensure thawed if previously frozen
For the Roasted Red Pepper Sauce
  • 2 cups Roasted Red Peppers Store-bought or homemade
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream Or coconut milk for dairy-free
  • 3 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 1 medium Onion Diced (yellow or white)
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Extra virgin for best flavor
For seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika Optional for garnish
  • Salt To taste
  • Pepper To taste

Equipment

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and minced garlic, sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
  2. Add roasted red peppers and blend until smooth and creamy with immersion blender.
  3. Season cod fillets with salt and pepper on both sides, then gently place them in the skillet, ensuring they are nestled in the sauce.
  4. Cover and simmer on low for 10-15 minutes until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. If sauce thickens too much, add a splash of broth or water. Adjust to maintain a smooth consistency.
  6. Carefully transfer cooked cod to plates, spooning extra sauce over. Garnish with paprika, and serve with sides like rice or roasted vegetables.
