  • 4 slices stale bread , diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion , finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves , crushed
  • 1 tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 400g can chopped tomatoes

  • STEP 2

    Meanwhile, heat the rest of the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened for about 10 mins, then add the garlic and chilli flakes and stir for 1 min. Tip in the tomatoes and fish fillets.

    Tip in the butter beans, season well, then cook until everything is hot. Serve scattered with the croutons, parsley and lemon.

RECIPE TIPS
GROW YOUR OWN

If you grow your own tomatoes, or have any really ripe ones to use up, quarter or halve them and add at the same time as the butter beans for a sweeter, fresher flavour.
