This easy dinner recipe is a mostly-oven wonder. The tomatoes caramelize and burnish at the edges, concentrating their flavor into a smoky, spicy pile. The lentils then cook in the tomatoes, making them the perfect base for the cod. It's a one-pan dinner, and tastes supremely elevated, without that much work.
