Instructions

Tip: tap a step to mark it as done.

  1. Prepare the cod

    5 min

    Pat the fillets dry with a paper towel and cut into 4 portions. Season with half the salt and the black pepper, then drizzle with lemon juice.

  2. Simmer the chickpeas

    8 min

    Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the chopped garlic and sauté briefly without letting it brown. Stir in the paprika, then immediately add the halved tomatoes, drained chickpeas, water and remaining salt. Simmer for 5 minutes.

  3. Add the spinach and fish

    10 min

    Stir in the spinach and let it wilt. Place the cod portions on top, cover and simmer over low heat for 7–8 minutes, until the fish is white and flakes when touched with a fork.

  4. Serve

    Serve immediately with bread or a baguette to soak up the juices.

Tip: Thaw frozen fillets in the refrigerator and pat them thoroughly dry before simmering, or they will release too much water and thin the sauce.
