My girlfriend broke her wrist.....so I made her this!
So recently my girlfriend broke her wrist falling down some steps, and whilst she is making progress and recovering well, she has lost some mobility in her wrist. This means cooking is a bit of a challenge for her as she can't just chop and dice away like she normally would. So I've come up with this baked cod with orzo recipe that is not only done in one pan, it's cheap, healthy and tasty. It also only needs very minimal chopping, so if you are having some mobility issues, or just feeling plain lazy, then this recipe is for you.
To make my one pan baked cod with orzo you will need:
2 large cod fillets (about 260g worth)
120g of frozen pre diced onion (or about half a med onion)
1 tsp of garlic puree or 3 small whole cloves minced
250g of whole cherry tomatoes
200g of orzo pasta
About 2 tsp of dried tarragon
About the equivalent of 1 red pepper's worth of jarred roasted peppers
About 700ml of chicken stock
Juice of 1/2 a lemon (add more to taste)
Olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste
