Ingredients

Topping ingredients:

1 cup diced tomatoes
1/2 cup pitted kalamata olives diced
1/2 cup black olives diced
3 tablespoons non-pareil capers rinsed
3 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon olive oil divided
pinch sea salt

Cod Ingredients

2 pounds cod fillets
1 tablespoon cold unsalted butter diced into small pieces
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a bowl combine tomatoes, kalamata olives, black olives, capers, garlic, olive oil and pinch of sea salt together in a bowl. Let stand at room temperature while you prepare the cod.
Season both sides of the cod lightly with salt and pepper. Lay in a baking dish. Sprinkle butter around the cod. Drizzle olive oil over the top.
Bake cod in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and spoon bruschetta topping over the top. Return to oven and continue baking for another 5 - 10 minutes or until the cod is opaque and flakes easily. Sprinkle fresh parsley over the top and serve.

Notes

Depending on the thickness of your cod this could take more or less time. Use a meat thermometer to check. Cod is done when the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees.

You can make the bruschetta topping several hours in advance. Simply refrigerate until ready to use.

When salting the cod, please remember that olives and capers are salty.
