Ingredients

  • 2 tomatoes, cubed
  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and cubed
  • 1 onion, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • aluminum foil
  • 4 (5 ounce) cod fillets
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Step 2
Combine tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, olive oil, basil, and garlic in a bowl and mix well.

Step 3
Lay 4 sheets of aluminum foil on a work surface and place 1 cod fillet in the center of each. Spoon tomato mixture evenly on top of the 4 fillets. Drizzle with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Place a second sheet of foil on top and seal the edges to make a parcel. Repeat with the remaining fillets and tomato mixture.

Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until cod flakes easily with a fork, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and carefully unwrap the parcels. Spoon onto warmed plates to serve.
