Slow-Cooked Blackened Cod Bowl

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: olive oil, lemon, garlic and set within reach of the stove.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the scallions and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Add the blackened cod and let it slow-cooked, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the butter and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a drizzle of olive oil right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
