Method

  1. Tip butter beans into a shallow microwave dish. Stir in half the lemon oil, half the parsley and all the chorizo. Top with the cod fillets and the remaining oil. Cover the dish with cling film and pierce it a few times. Microwave on High for 4-5 mins, until the fish looks opaque and flakes easily.
  2. Remove the fish from the dish. Stir together beans and chorizo and spoon onto plates. Top the beans with the fish and scatter with remaining parsley.

Taste team comment

'This dish is a 5-minute delight, so perfect for mid-week suppers. The fish contrasts well with the sausage and the whole dish gave a great Mediterranean sense of well being.'

    Not too bad a meal, I used undyed smoked haddock from M&S which was really nice but I found the butter beans a little dry. The chorizo we got from Sainsbury's, which was thinly sliced spanish chorizo and delicious.
