Poached Cod with Mushrooms & Tomatoes over Spinach

This recipe was created as I picked through the fridge tonight. The cod came out so tender - it was really good.  The rest of the family did without the spinach and had a side of iceberg based salad instead. The kids got fries too. Oh well, baby steps with them, but it's a start. 


2 Tbsp olive oil
4 cod filets
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup canned diced tomatoes
salt and pepper
10 oz fresh Spinach


  • heat oil in a large skillet
  • Add onion and garlic and heat over medium until soft, about 5 minutes.
  • Add mushrooms and heat for 5 minutes
  • Add tomatoes and chicken broth and heat to boiling
  • Reduce heat to simmering and add cod, season with salt and pepper
  • Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until cod is opaque and ready to serve.
To serve, line plate with Spinach. Dress spinach with a little olive oil, salt and pepper.
Place cod over spinach. Then spoon vegetable mixture over cod.
