Tips:

- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes. If fresh tomatoes are unavailable, you can use canned diced tomatoes. - Be sure to salt the cod fillets before cooking. This will help to draw out any excess moisture and will also help to season the fish. - Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the fish. If the pan is too crowded, the fish will not cook evenly. - If you are using a nonstick pan, be sure to use a little bit of oil to prevent the fish from sticking. - Serve the cod puttanesca immediately over pasta or rice.

Conclusion:

Cod puttanesca is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The combination of briny olives, tangy tomatoes, and capers creates a flavorful sauce that will tantalize your taste buds. Serve the cod puttanesca over pasta or rice, and you'll have a meal that the whole family will enjoy.
