- ½ tsp black pepper, divided

- ¼ tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
- ⅓ cup dry white wine
- ½ cup pitted kalamata olives, halved
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped

Instructions

Pat the cod fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels, then season both sides with 1/2 tsp of the salt and 1/4 tsp of the pepper.

Heat 2 tbsp of the garlic-infused olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the cod fillets and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes, until the underside is golden and releases cleanly from the pan. Flip and sear for 2 minutes more, then transfer to a plate — the fish will finish cooking in the sauce.
