• Make the sauce by heating the oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and chilli flakes, and sauté until the garlic is fragrant. Add cherry tomatoes and cook for about ten minutes until they begin to blister and soften but still hold their shape. Stir in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the lemon zest, juice, basil, salt, sugar and pepper, and cook for two minutes. Set aside to keep warm.
• To cook the cod, pat it dry with paper towels and season on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Cook the cod for about three minutes until golden, then carefully turn it over and cook the other side for another three or four minutes until cooked through.
• Add the sauce to the pan and warm through for a minute or two and serve immediately.
