    Grindabod is right. The aïoli definitely kicks it up a notch and isn't at all difficult to make. I loved this. Especially with fresh off the boat cod from the farmers market. My thicker pieces of cod did take the full three minutes to cook. Wouldn't bother with the olives next time. Didn't think they added much.

    This is the quickest route to bouillabaisse vibes on a weeknight. Super flavourful in almost no time. The aïoli is well worth making! Be mindful about not overcooking the fish, it has already been marinated in citrus, so it barely needs any further cooking. I had smaller pieces and they only needed to simmer about 1 minute on each side.
