Mediterranean Skillet Cod (South Beach Diet Phase 1) image

From most recent book. Haven't tried. Servethe cod in shallow bowls with soup spoons so you don't leave any of the rich sauce. This recipe is best made with red, full-flavored, Spanish pequillo peppers, which you usually find among the other jarred peppers in the supermarket. You could use roasted red pepper instead.

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium zucchini, cut into 1/4 inch slices
1 small onion, thinly sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 pinch salt
1 pinch fresh ground black pepper
14 1/2 ounces diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 cup roasted red pepper, thinly sliced (or preferred 2 pequillo peppers, from a jar, thinly sliced)
24 ounces cod, fillets (4-6 ounce fillets)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add zucchini, onion, garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.
  • Stir in tomatoes and peppers and simmer over medium heat 10 minutes longer.
