Instructions

Here’s how to create your Christmas Coconut Curry Baked Cod:

1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
2. Prepare the Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish that is large enough to hold all the cod fillets and vegetables.
3. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the coconut milk, red curry paste, fish sauce, lime juice, minced garlic, and ginger. Whisk until smooth.
4. Line the Dish: Arrange the sliced bell pepper, onion, and cherry tomatoes at the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
5. Place the Cod: Lay the cod fillets on top of the vegetables. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Pour the Sauce: Pour the coconut curry sauce evenly over the cod and vegetables, ensuring everything is well coated.
7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cod is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
8. Garnish: Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving.
9. Serve: Pair with cooked rice or quinoa to soak up the delicious sauce.
