Cooking Tips

• For extra flavor, you can add some chopped onions or bell peppers to the tomato mixture.
• If you prefer a thicker jam-like consistency, you can remove the lid of the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow some of the liquid to evaporate.
• Make sure to use fresh cod fillets for the best results. Frozen cod may release more liquid during cooking.

Storage and Serving

• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, gently warm the cod in a microwave or oven until heated through.
• This slow-cooker cod with tomato-balsamic jam is delicious served over rice or with crusty bread to soak up the flavorful sauce.
