Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 1-inch-thick slices ciabatta bread
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
3 cloves garlic, lightly smashed
4 anchovy fillets
1 28-ounce can no-salt-added whole plum tomatoes, crushed by hand
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives, halved
2 tablespoons capers
Pinch of red pepper flakes
4 cod fillets (about 1 1/2 inches thick; 6 ounces each)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the ciabatta on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon each oregano and basil. Bake until golden brown, 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and anchovies and cook, stirring often, until the garlic is golden and the anchovies break down, about 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes, their juices and 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook, stirring occasionally, until saucy, about 10 minutes. Stir in the olives, capers, red pepper flakes and the remaining 1 tablespoon each oregano and basil; simmer 2 minutes.
  • Season the fish with salt and pepper and arrange on top of the sauce in the skillet. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake until the fish is just cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Divide the bread among 4 shallow bowls; top with the fish and puttanesca sauce.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make all the difference in your dish. Look for ripe tomatoes, briny capers, and plump olives.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the cod, make sure to give it enough space in the pan so that it can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the fish will steam instead of sear.
  • Cook the fish until it is just cooked through: Cod is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook it until it is just opaque in the center, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Add the spinach at the end: Spinach wilts quickly, so add it to the pasta towards the end of cooking. This will help it retain its vibrant green color and nutrients.

Conclusion:

This cod puttanesca with spinach spaghetti is a delicious and easy weeknight meal. It's packed with flavor, thanks to the salty capers, briny olives, and tangy tomatoes. The spinach adds a pop of color and nutrition, and the spaghetti provides a hearty base. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table, and it's a great way to use up any leftover cod.
