  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cod fillets (6–8 oz each)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt (divided)
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Pat cod fillets dry. Rub with 1 tablespoon olive oil, then season with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Let sit at room temp.
  2. Toss cherry tomatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt. Roast at 425°F for 12–15 minutes until blistered.
  3. In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add cream, dill, lemon juice, remaining salt and pepper. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Grill cod on medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side until flaky and opaque.
  5. To serve, spoon dill sauce onto plates, top with roasted tomatoes, then place grilled cod on top. Garnish with more dill if desired.

Notes

  • Use thick fillets to prevent breakage while grilling.
  • Sauce can be made ahead and gently reheated.
  • Be patient when flipping cod—if it sticks, it’s not ready to turn.
