Baked Cod With Kalalmata Olives, Limes and Capers


Now that the holiday season has come and gone, we can get back to our normal routines.  For some of us that means some sort of diet to lose the pounds we gained as the result of our overindulgence of the many recent celebrations. And I am not totally innocent of said digressions.

Every year I vow to improve my eating habits.   That usually lasts for about two weeks until all of my "cravings" eventually come screaming back at me!  I am proud that I have made it to the 6th day of January...  So let me be among the first to offer up this quick and easy to prepare, healthy  and extremely tasteful entree.  Happy New Year!

Baked Cod With Kalamata Olives, Capers and Limes 
(Serves 4)
Ingredients
4 (6 ounce) cod fillets
Seafood Spice Blend
12 thin lime slices
1/4 cup chopped kalamata olives
1/4 cup drained capers
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 cup olive oil

Preparation
Preheat oven to 475℉.  Put cod fillets  in an ovenproof baking dish and season with spice blend.  Top each fillet with 3 lime slices, the olives, capers and rosemary.  Drizzle with olive oil.
Bake until the fish is cooked through and flakey, 10-12 minutes.  Remove the fish from the oven and serve with spanish-style rice and your favorite steamed veggie.
