Simple Fish and Tomatoes

This is one of my favorite ways to use up cherry tomatoes from the garden during the growing season. I paired it with fish this time but this sauce dress deliciously over any protein really. I loaded our sauce with lots of cilantro. If you’re averse with its floral fragrance, culantro or parsley will also do. Instead of using the pan to fry the fish, I opt for the air fryer. It shaves off some cooking time since I can make the sauce in the pan while the fish is cooking.
