  • One Pot

Rich, red and full of fresh ingredients, this gently spiced poached fish in a dish is ready in just half-an-hour. We've tossed in some chickpeas and lifted with a squeeze of lemon and peppery rocket to whip your tastebuds into a frenzy. If you have a loaf of crusty bread, put it to use mopping up that extra sauciness.
