2

cod, steaks, about 2 inches thick (about Â 3/4 pound)
1

lb broccoli, rape with hard stems removed or 1 lb kale, washed with hard stems removed
5

tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3

garlic cloves, crushed
1

dried hot peppers or 1 hot pepper flakes
¹⁄₂

cup black olives, cured in oil
1

pinch salt
¹⁄₃

lb feta cheese
1

pinch oregano
1

large ripe tomatoes
1

teaspoon lemon juice

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350*F.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add in the rape or kale. When the water comes back to a boil, drain and set aside.
In a bowl chop and crush the tomatoes, lemon juice and add a pinch of oregano, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and crushed cloves of garlic. Mix everything together well.
In a large baking pan, dribble the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the drained rape or kale, the olives and the codfish steaks.
Pour some of the tomato mixture over each fillet and add some salt and pepper to taste.
Crumble feta cheese over each fillet and bake in oven for 30 minutes.
Check the fish occasionally to make sure it does not get overcooked and dry up. (It's fine if the rape or kale overcooks. The leaves will get a little crispy, but the taste will be sweeter.).
Garnish the fish with lemon slices extra virgin olive oil and serve. Serves 2.
