Baked Cod Italian-Style image

Tonight, I decided to try to re-create my mom's baked fish. I played with it and used some of the herbs my family love. Also, added white wine, because that makes everything taste good. I like to use wine when I cook, sometimes I even put it in the food. Just kidding!

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 to 2 lb white fish, such as cod or haddock
1 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
2 clove garlic, minced
1/2 c onions, chopped
1 c bell green pepper, chopped (or a combination of red, yellow & green)
1 (14.5 o can(s) diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 c white wine
1/2 tsp basil, dried
1/4 tsp oregano, dried
juice of 1/2 lemon
salt and pepper to taste
grated parmesan cheese (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400'F. Spray bottom of a 9x13" baking pan with cooking spray.
  • 2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and add garlic, peppers and onions; cook on medium for about 2 minutes or until slightly softened.
  • 3. Add tomatoes and wine; continue to cook for 10 minutes or until liquid has evaporated and leaves a chunky sauce.
  • 4. Trim fillets by taking off any skin and removing any bones. (Usually they come trimmed and cleaned from the fish section of your grocery store.)
  • 5. Place fish fillets in the prepared baking pan in a single layer; sprinkle with lemon juice, then spoon the tomato mixture over the fish; sprinkle with Parmesan, if desired.
  • 6. Bake, covered, for 15-20 minutes or until fish is opaque all the way through and flakes easily with a fork. Serve immediately.
