Description

A delightful dish featuring tender cod fillets baked in a rich and creamy roasted red pepper sauce, perfect for busy weeknights.


Ingredients

  • 4 cod fillets
  • 2 roasted red peppers
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley for garnish


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper.
  3. In a blender, combine the roasted red peppers, heavy cream, garlic, and olive oil. Blend until smooth.
  4. Place the cod fillets in a baking dish and pour the red pepper sauce over the top.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flaky.
  6. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For a spicy kick, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce. Ensure cod fillets are roughly the same size for even cooking.
