Four 6-ounce fillets of cod
Here are the ingredients: 2 teaspoons of olive oil, 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, salt, and pepper, to taste.
– Minced clove of garlic
– Half a lemon’s juice
– 2 teaspoons of finely chopped fresh parsley
• Chopped fresh dill (1 tablespoon) • Snipped fresh chives (1 tablespoon)
How to Follow
1. Use paper towels to dry the cod fillets, then season them with salt and pepper on both sides.
2. Bring the olive oil to a shimmering but non-smoking boil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
3. Gently lay the fish fillets in the pan and sear for about four minutes per side, or until the bottom becomes a golden crisp.
4. Carefully use a spatula to turn the cod over and continue cooking for an additional three minutes, or until it readily flakes when tested with a fork.
5. Take the fish out of the pan and place it on a foil-lined platter to keep it warm.
6. Bring the same skillet to a medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about a minute, until the garlic is aromatic and the butter has melted.
Stir in the chives, parsley, dill, and lemon juice after removing the pan from the heat.
8. Top the heated cod fillets with the herb butter sauce and serve right away.
