01 - Gently pat cod fillets dry using paper towels. Season both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper, then drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil to coat.
02 - In a bowl, toss cherry tomatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
03 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Arrange tomatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 15–20 minutes, or until the skins are blistered and lightly charred.
