Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente.

Dice the tomatoes, slice the onion, and mince the garlic. Cut cod into large bite-size pieces.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion 4 minutes until softened.

Add garlic and red pepper flakes, then stir in tomatoes and cook 8 to 10 minutes until saucy.

Season cod with salt and pepper, nestle it into the tomato sauce, cover, and cook 5 to 7 minutes until just flaky.

Add drained pasta, basil, lemon zest, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Toss gently so the cod stays in chunks.
