Spicy Chorizo and Cod

White fish can be quite bland so here’s what we do to make it more exciting!

  1. Heat the oil in a pan and cook the onion and garlic oven medium heat for a few minutes. Throw the chorizo in (literally!), allow a few more minutes, then tip in the tomatoes (peeled and chopped). Season generously and bring to the boil.
  2. Once boiling, dry and season the cod fillets and nestle into the pan. Reduce the heat and gently simmer for about 5 minutes.
  3. Move everything into an oven proof dish and place in the oven for an extra 15 mins. Gently mix in the butter beans for the last 5 (and I mean GENTLY! because cod falls apart when it’s done) .
  4. Scatter half a bunch of chopped parsley and shout ‘dinner’s ready!’
