Steps:
- Combine olive oil, onion, and bell peppers in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook gently until softened, stirring occasionally, 5 to 10 minutes. Pour in ouzo and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, allowing alcohol to evaporate. Add plum tomatoes and lightly crush with the back of a spoon until broken apart. Add water and mint, then season with salt and pepper. Simmer gently until sauce is thickened, about 10 minutes.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Nestle cod fillets in the sauce and spoon some sauce over top. Cook, turning once halfway through, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes.
