- 4 cod fillets (4-6 oz each)
- oil or broth for frying if necessary
- 16 grape tomatoes
- 1 clove minced garlic
- 16 black olives, pitted
- ½ small red onion
- white vinegar enough to soak the onion slices
- fresh dill for garnish or parsley
- sea salt for finishing
Slice the red onion vertically in thin slices. Cover in a single layer with vinegar and let it steep. You can do this hours ahead if you like but soak at least 10 minutes.
Heat your frying pan over medium heat and cook the cod fillets. Depending on the thickness it could take 5-8 minutes. When the cod is opaque and easy to separate along the natural lines of the fillet it is done.
While cod is cooking, sauté the tomatoes, garlic and black olives just until heated through.
Plate the cod and top with tomato mixture, Garnish with red onion slices and fresh dill or parsley.
Finish with sea salt and serve.
