I didn’t want to turn on the oven during a heatwave. So I used the olive oil from the tin of anchovies to sauté the cod fish. After turning over the fish, I then added about a 1/4 cup of white wine to the pan, and basted the fish with the fluids, while the wine continued to evaporate.

Added quartered cherry tomatoes, lemon zest and parsley to the olive mix. Cooked at a friends house and her oven didn't get hot enough, so I put the broiler on. This dish was beyond easy to prepare. I will make it again.
Perfect, tasty and easy. Also I had all the ingredients at home, so it worked out perfectly.
