While potatoes roast, heat butter and remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a saucepan over medium. Cook shallot 5 minutes until soft, then add garlic for 1 minute.
Stir in cream, stock, rosemary, lemon zest, lemon juice, Dijon, cayenne, and capers. Simmer 5 minutes until slightly thickened.
Season cod with 1 tsp salt. Remove potatoes, nestle cod among them, and pour sauce over top. Bake uncovered 10–15 minutes, until cod flakes easily.
Finish with parsley if desired. Serve hot, spooning sauce over fish and potatoes.
