{One-Dish} Cod with Dill Tomato Sauce

{One Dish} Cod with Dill Tomato Sauce

{One Dish} Cod with Dill Tomato Sauce

A couple nights ago I found myself coming home right at dinner time. This meant I needed to make dinner in a hurry because I knew the troops would be starving. So I drove home I was mentally going through the fridge, trying to come up with something that would be quick.

I knew I had cod thawed out in the fridge and that it could be cooked quickly, but I had been planning to make my fish ‘n’ chips sandwich and had my husband pick up the vinegar chips for them but then he ate all the chips and I hadn’t made rolls so I figured I needed to come up with a different direction to go with the fish.

So having made recipes with a tomato sauce like this before, just not with fish, I came up with this dish. I knew I had my trusty bread dough already on the rise so I decided to make this good and saucy and serve it with a loaf of fresh crusty sourdough bread.

Yum.

It was good. It was very good. We all gobbled it up, even the kids. My oldest even said, “Mom this is the best fish you’ve ever made!” and he is a professed tomato hater so I took that as a HUGE compliment. It IS possible they were just super starving because they had just spent the entire day with Dad and he forgets to feed them sometimes….who knows, but it was a hit and I really need to start buying 2 bags of cod, these kids eat a lot!
