This was good, but the fish needed some seasoning before topping with the tomatoes. I think this would be really good if you added something as simple as salt and pepper to the fish before topping, or maybe some creole seasoning....after all it's topped with the basic creole/cajun trinity! This was really easy to make and really beautiful to serve. It looked fabulous coming out of the oven. Thanks for sharing! Made for 123 Hits tag.

Very quick and very easy weeknight dinner! This was beyond easy to throw together and it had very mild flavors. I especially enjoyed the touch of acidity with the cod from the tomatoes. My mother also loved it. Thanks for the great recipe! Made for ZWT5.
