## Why It Fits

Cod is a low-fat, high-protein white fish that bakes quickly. The Mediterranean accompaniments make it feel like more than a plain piece of fish.

- 200g cherry tomatoes, halved
- 2 tbsp capers
- 1 lemon, sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Fresh parsley
- Salt, pepper

## Steps

1. Place cod in a baking dish; scatter tomatoes, capers, garlic, and lemon slices around.
2. Drizzle with olive oil; season well.
3. Bake at 200°C / 400°F for 12–15 min until fish flakes easily.
4. Scatter fresh parsley and serve with bread or new potatoes.
