Servings: persons

2 cod, steaks, about 2 inches thick (about A 3/4 pound)
1 lb broccoli, rape with hard stems removed or 1 lb kale, washed with hard stems removed
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 dried hot peppers or 1 hot pepper flakes
1/2 cup black olives, cured in oil
1 pinch salt
1/3 lb feta cheese
1 pinch oregano
1 large ripe tomatoes
1 teaspoon lemon juice

1
Preheat oven to 350*F.
2
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add in the rape or kale. When the water comes back to a boil, drain and set aside.
3
In a bowl chop and crush the tomatoes, lemon juice and add a pinch of oregano, 3 tablespoons olive oil, and crushed cloves of garlic. Mix everything together well.
4
In a large baking pan, dribble the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the drained rape or kale, the olives and the codfish steaks.
5
Pour some of the tomato mixture over each fillet and add some salt and pepper to taste.
6
Crumble feta cheese over each fillet and bake in oven for 30 minutes.
7
Check the fish occasionally to make sure it does not get overcooked and dry up. (It's fine if the rape or kale overcooks. The leaves will get a little crispy, but the taste will be sweeter.).
8
Garnish the fish with lemon slices extra virgin olive oil and serve. Serves 2.
