Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1.5 lbs Cod Fillets approx. 4 fillets (680g total)
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes 150g
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil 30ml
  • 0.5 cup Greek Yogurt 120ml, or sour cream
  • 0.25 cup Fresh Dill 10g, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice 15ml
  • 1 clove Garlic minced

Equipment

  • 1 Outdoor Grill Or grill pan
  • 1 Small mixing bowl For the dill sauce

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels. Rub with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, fresh dill, lemon juice, lemon zest, and minced garlic until smooth.
Grilling
  1. Place fillets on a preheated 400°F (200°C) grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side until the fish is flaky and shows a glossy sheen.
  2. Place cherry tomatoes on the grill next to the fish. Grill until the skins are charred and bubbling.
  3. Plate the cod, dollop generously with the dill sauce, and surround with the blistered tomatoes.

Notes

Patting the fish dry is essential for a good sear.
Always use fresh dill for the most vibrant flavor.
