Ingredients
-
2 tbsp olive oil
-
1 onion, roughly chopped
-
2 large garlic cloves, finely sliced
-
1 tbsp sweet, smoked paprika
- ½ tsp cayenne papper or chilli flakes
-
100g chorizo, sliced into small chunks
-
1 jar of Queen Butter Beans - with their bean stock
-
1 x 400g tin of quality chopped tomatoes
- Pinch of sugar*
-
1 small courgette, diced
-
1/2 red pepper, roughly chopped
-
2 cod fillets
-
20g fresh parsley, finely chopped
-
The juice of ½ lemon, plus wedges to serve
-
Crusty bread, to serve (optional)
Directions
Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook for 8-10 minutes until softened. Then, add the garlic and fry for a further minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped chorizo and fry until the juices start to release - about 3-4 minutes - stirring occasionally.
Add the paprika and cayenne and mix well, coating the onions and garlic in the chorizo juices. Add the chopped courgette and peppers and cook for 5-6 minutes until starting to soften.
Stir in the chopped tomatoes* If your tomatoes are quite sour, add the sugar now. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer for a couple of minutes to allow the sauce to thicken slightly.
Pour in the butter beans with their bean stock, stir to combine and bubble away for 2 minutes to warm the beans through and allow the mixture to thicken slightly. Season well with salt and pepper.
Nestle the cod fillets on top of the stew with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover with a lid and gently simmer over a low-medium heat for 7-8 minutes or until the cod is fully cooked through. It should flake easily.
Scatter over the parsley and squeeze over the juice of half a lemon. Serve into bowls with a squeeze more lemon and a side of crusty bread for dunking, if you like.
