Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 Cod Fish fillets seasoned with salt and black pepper, halved or cut in three equal pieces
  • 10 Tomatoes skin peeled, seeds and excess water removed
  • 4 Garlic cloves minced
  • 1/4 cup Capers rinsed
  • 1/2 cup Kalamata olives
  • 4-6 Anchovies
  • 1/3 cup White Wine Chardonnay
  • 1 tsp. Hot pepper flakes
  • Olive oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Handful Parsley chopped, for topping

Instructions
 

  • Begin by heating a large drizzle of olive oil in a large saute pan. Add in the garlic and anchovies and saute for about a minute.
  • Add in the capers, kalamata olives, and the hot pepper flakes. Saute for about a minute over a medium/high flame.
  • Pour in the white wine and mix together for about one to two minutes, to allow the alcohol to evaporate.
  • Add in the tomatoes and season with salt and black pepper. Mix together and cook over a medium to low flame for ten minutes.
  • After ten minutes, add in the cod fish. Scoop some of the puttanesca sauce over each piece of cod. Cover the pan with a lid and let the cod cook in the puttanesca sauce for fifteen minutes over a low flame. Remove the lid only to scoop some more of the sauce over each piece of cod while cooking.
  • Remove from the stove top and serve with a sprinkle of fresh parsley on top. Enjoy with a side of potatoes, rice, pasta, or salad. Salute and cin cin!
