Specifically from Basque Country, Bacalao Al Pil-Pil is unsurprisingly all about salt cod. And while I can't say it's the most delicious thing I've ever tasted, it is yummy and quite hearty. I certainly wouldn't reject it if I came across it again.
All you need are four or five ingredients -- depending on whether you use any herbs -- and about a half hour (after 2 full days of soaking the fish to de-salt it, of course) to do a quick bit of chopping then babysit a pan.
With a bit of research, I settled on some combination of these four recipes and YouTube videos:
