• After 2 minutes, add the beans and a dash of salt and pepper and stir again.
• If you are using frozen fish then add it now - nestle into the sauce and season well on top.
• Put the pan in the oven, uncovered, and cook for 15 minutes.
• Take out the oven and flip the fish over with a spatula or tongs, re-nestle into the sauce and season the other side. if you are using fresh cod then season both sides and add to the sauce now.
• Place back in the oven and cook for another 12-15 minutes, until the cod is cooked through. The juices from the tomatoes, onions and chorizo should have made a delicious sauce.
