    Ingredients

    1tsp rapeseed oil

    1 small leek, sliced

    1 small courgette, sliced

    1tbsp reduced-fat pesto

    1 lemon, ½ juiced and ½ sliced

    1 rasher smoked streaky bacon

    260g pack Extra Special Cod Loin

    Method

    1
    Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6. Lay a large sheet of foil on a baking tray and brush with the rapeseed oil.
    2
    In a bowl, toss the leek and courgette with the pesto and lemon juice. Season with black pepper and heap in the centre of the foil. Arrange the lemon slices on top.
    3
    Wrap the bacon around the cod fillet. Set the fish on top of the lemon slices, with the bacon seam underneath.
    4
    Fold up the sides of the foil and crimp to seal into a parcel. Bake for 20 mins, until the fish is tender and flaky and the vegetables are cooked. Transfer to a plate and season with black pepper to serve.
