Ingredients and Substitutions

There’s a printable recipe card below for this easy cod and chorizo traybake with the full quantities. But here are the main ingredients and ideas for any swaps.

  • Cod: I uses cod fillets but this would work with any white fish. I think it would also be delicious with salmon!
  • Baby Potatoes: Or larger potatoes chopped into chunks.
  • Veg: I used a combination of peppers and red onion, but you could add other veg like tomatoes, courgette, aubergine or asparagus.
  • Chickpeas: Or try butterbeans. These add extra fibre, protein and texture.
  • Chorizo: I prefer a spicy chorizo, but you can use a milder one or omit if you’re not keen. This would also work well with bacon lardons instead.

For the marinade I also use a combination of lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, smoked paprika and garlic, as well as some salt.

You could used a mixed Italian seasoning and spicy paprika instead, it’s easy to chop and change this depending on what you have in the cupboards.

Storing and Freezing Instructions

TO STORE: Any leftovers can be kept in the fridge, but reheating fish can lead it to dry out. I’d recommend if making this in advance to cook everything except the fish, then reheat and add the fish to cook fresh.

TO FREEZE: The veg/chorizo/potato part of this recipe would be fine to freeze but again, I’d recommend cooking the fish fresh when reheating.
