Description

Cod baked with lemon and tomatoesI adapted this from a recipe for Orata, which we don't get in New England waters, but for which Cod substitutes pretty well. 

It's light and summery, and it's really quick and simple to prepare, too. It's especially nice with a light pasta on the side, with no sauce except what's in the fish dish.

  3. Season with salt and pepper and the olive oil.
  4. Slide the bay leaf to the bottom of the dish, then gently pour in the wine.
