Super easy and great for kids (except for the capers and olives) and adults alike. I used extra tomatoes and less water. Lots of flavor and very healthy.
Cod Poached in Spicy Tomato Broth

Serve a one-dish dinner of fish in a Mediterranean-inspired sauce. You'll love the bright punch of flavor from the crushed red pepper--and how easy this dish is to clean up. Cod is a firm, white saltwater fish. Flounder or sole can substitute.
Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 fillet and about 2/3 cup sauce)
