Spanish style cod traybake

This Spanish style cod tray bake from Chloe at Life & Fork is a great choice for busy mid-week meals, and for those days when you want to impress. Packed with wonderful Mediterranean flavours, the crumbed cod works effortlessly with the sweet, succulent tray baked veg, bringing in a wonderful contrast in textures that feels like a restaurant-grade meal.

Chloe used our Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil to roast the veggies, and our chilli oil to add a kick to the panko crumbed cod. Deliciosa!

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 170°C (fan).

  2. 2

    In a large roasting tray, add the leek, tomatoes, chorizo, bruised garlic cloves, butterbeans, jarred peppers, pepper juice, olives, and 1 tsp thyme. Season with smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper. Drizzle over the Mellow Yellow cold pressed rapeseed oil and white wine. Mix and spread out evenly.

  3. 3

    Roast for 45 minutes, turning halfway through.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix together the breadcrumb ingredients with the Mellow Yellow Chilli Oil. Press the breadcrumb mixture onto the top side of the cod loins.

  5. 5

    After 45 minutes, nestle the breadcrumb-topped cod on top of the vegetables (do not cover).

  6. 6

    Roast for approximately 20-25 minutes, depending on the thickness (cod loin internal temp = 60°C).

  7. 7

    Garnish with parsley leaves and a squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately.

  8. 8

    Mop up the juices with crusty bread!
