Cod With Leeks and Tomatoes
By kmad
Cod is a lean fish that is available year-round and can be baked, broiled, or poached. Its mild taste pairs well with sharp flavors, such as lemon. Other firm, mild fish, including halibut, sole, and haddock, can be used in place of cod.
Ingredients
- 2 medium leeks, white and light-green parts only, thinly sliced, rinsed well, and patted dry

- Salt and fresh ground pepper
