Smoky cod, broccoli & orzo bake recipe

Ingredients

  • ½ tbsp olive oil, plus a drizzle
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika, plus a pinch
  • ½-1 tbsp chipotle paste
  • 200g long-stem broccoli
  • 400ml hot vegetable stock
  • 150g orzo
  • ½ small bunch of dill, chopped
  • ½ small bunch of parsley, chopped
  • 50g frozen peas
  • 2 sustainable skinless cod fillets
  • 4 tbsp fat-free yogurt

Method

  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a deep ovenproof frying pan, and fry the onion for 5 mins until tender. Add the paprika, chipotle paste, broccoli and stock. Stir in the orzo, and transfer to the oven for 10 mins.

  • Stir in half the herbs and the peas, and nestle the fish into the orzo. Sprinkle over a pinch of paprika and drizzle with oil, then season. Cook for 8-10 mins until the fish is cooked and the orzo is tender. Mix the remaining herbs with the yogurt. Loosen with a little water if needed, then serve with the orzo and fish.
