Makes 2 servings.

 

Ingredients:

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil

  • 1½ cups (105 g) shiitake mushrooms, chopped

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • ¼ tsp sea salt

  • ¾ cup (180 g) crushed tomatoes

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

  • 2 5 oz (140 g) cod or haddock filets

 

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400ºF/200ºC and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and saute for 2-3 minutes before adding the garlic and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 30 seconds, and then add the tomatoes. Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, until the liquid reduces by about a third. Add the Italian seasoning and stir. 

  3. Place the fish filets on the baking sheet and spoon half of the mixture over each filet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the fish is cooked through – it should flake easily. Thicker filets will take longer to cook.

  4. Remove from the oven and serve!
