Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Combine the cherry tomatoes, white wine, olives, 3 of the garlic cloves, capers, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
- Pat the haddock fillets dry with a paper towel and season the flesh side with the Italian seasoning, paprika, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Nestle the fillets into the sauce in the baking dish. Bake until the sauce is bubbling around the edges and the fillets are cooked through and easily flaked with a fork, 15 to 20 minutes.

BACON AND ONION PASTA
Building off of the simple but powerfully flavorful Italian dish pasta aglio, olio e peperoncino, this wondrous pantry recipe gets much of its flavor from bacon fat and caramelized onions. The one-two-three punch of spicy red-pepper flakes, aromatic garlic slivers and savory herbes de Provence bloomed in fat provides the umami-rich base for this easy workday meal. Red vermouth creates a rich, jammy pasta sauce edged with sweetness. Don't sleep on angel hair pasta: It's got the right airy bounciness that's excellent at soaking up seasonings. Threaded with parsley and Parmesan, these generously oiled noodles are a dream to eat.

Steps:
- Take the bacon out of its packaging with the slices still stuck together and place on a cutting board. Cut the bacon, still stacked, crosswise into ½-inch slices to create little bacon pieces, also known as lardons. Add to a large rimmed sheet pan. Halve and thinly slice the onions. Add to the sheet pan as well. Drizzle the olive oil over the bacon and onions, season with salt and pepper, and toss until evenly coated.
- Place the sheet pan in a cold oven and then heat the oven to 450 degrees. Roast until the bacon has rendered much of its fat but is still pink and the onions are slightly charred in spots but not too dark, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Smash the garlic cloves with the side of your knife and thinly slice them. When the bacon and onions have had their 20 to 25 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven and stir in the garlic, red-pepper flakes, herbes de Provence and vermouth. Place the pan back in the oven and continue cooking until the vermouth is almost evaporated, and the bacon and onions look jammy and caramelized but not burnt, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Cook the pasta according to package instructions. (Don't overcook it, as angel hair can go from bouncy to soggy in seconds). Reserve 1 cup of the cooking liquid. Drain the pasta and return it to the pot.
- Carefully transfer everything from the pan to the pot with the cooked pasta. Add the parsley and Parmesan to the pasta, and toss until evenly combined, adding some of the reserved cooking liquid if the sauce needs thinning out. Taste, adding more salt and pepper as needed, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the butter in a shallow flameproof casserole dish and sizzle the bacon until it changes colour. Add the onion and thyme and fry with the bacon for 5 mins until the onion is starting to soften. Lower the heat, add the potatoes to the onion and cover the pan. Steam-fry the potatoes for 25-35 mins until they soften, stirring occasionally to stop them sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- When the potatoes are ready, stir through the haddock, crème fraîche and a good grinding of black pepper, and mix until everything is combined. Flatten down with a fish slice and bake in the oven for 40 mins until golden. Serve with a green salad.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh haddock fillets. If you're using frozen fillets, thaw them in the refrigerator overnight before cooking.
- To prevent the haddock from sticking to the pan, make sure the pan is hot before adding the fish.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you're cooking multiple pieces of fish, cook them in batches.
- Cook the haddock until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Overcooking will make the fish dry and tough.
- Serve the haddock immediately with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.
Conclusion:
Haddock with bacon and onions is a simple but delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is mild and flaky, while the bacon and onions add flavor and richness. This recipe is also easy to customize to your own taste. For example, you can add different vegetables, such as mushrooms or bell peppers, or you can use a different type of fish, such as cod or tilapia.
