directions

  • Melt half the butter in a shallow flameproof casserole dish that is big enough to hold all the pieces of cod in a single layer.
  • Fry the cod, skin-side down, for 1 minute, until crisp and golden. Carefully remove from the dish and set aside.
  • Add the onion to the dish and fry gently for 5 minutes, until softened.
  • Add the plum tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, stock and white wine. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes, until slightly reduced and thickened.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Place the cod skin-side up on top of the onion and tomato mixture, transfer the casserole dish to the oven and bake for 5-6 minutes - less if the pieces of cod are thin.
  • Remove from the oven and lift the cod out on to a warm plate. Return the dish to the stove over a high heat, add the remaining butter and reduce by boiling rapidly for about 4 minutes, stirring now and then, to make a really thick sauce.
  • Stir in the parsley, season with salt and pepper and cook for 30 seconds more.
  • Spoon the sauce on to four warm plates, put the cod on top and garnish with parsley sprigs and serve.
