Slice the onions thinly into half rings. Remove the seeds from the sweet peppers and slice them into long strips that are 5 mm thick. Chop the garlic and fresh chili (if using) into thin slices. Halve the cherry tomatoes. |

Heat some olive oil in a big frying pan and sauté the peppers until soft and the skins are browned. Once done, transfer the peppers to a plate. |

Done
|
Reduce the heat to medium, add more olive oil, place the onions in the pan and sauté until soft and slightly golden for about 10 to 15 minutes. When the onions are done, add the garlic and chili and sauté all together for a couple more minutes. Next, add the cherry tomatoes and a little salt, cover with a lid and simmer until the tomatoes are soft for about 5 to 10 minutes. The tomatoes should break down completely, creating a tomato sauce. Give it a stir and taste it. The sauce should have a subtle hint of saltiness. |

Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper on all sides and place them in a single layer in the pan, dipping them in the sauce. You can spread some of the sauce on top of the fish. Sprinkle the dish with browned sweet peppers, capers and olives. Cover the dish with a lid and simmer on medium heat until the fish is cooked, which should take about 20 to 25 minutes. Finish by sprinkling fresh herbs over the dish. |
