I always use lemon thyme or lemon zest and it really elevates the dish

I don’t know why this has so many 5* reviews. It is basically fish in tinned tomatoes. Thought the addition of soy sauce and thyme was going to elevate it to another level, to a dish that is more than the sum of its parts but they don’t . After eating it I checked the ingredients twice to make sure…

question

Could you make the sauce ahead and freeze then pop on top of the cod and bake in a bag in the oven/air fryer/ microwave?
