1 pound cod fillets ((4 fillets))
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic ((minced))
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh parsley ((minced))

BROILED FISH WITH LEMON CURRY BUTTER



Broiled Fish With Lemon Curry Butter image

Broiled fish fillets topped with a little butter and a squirt of lemon is a quick, easy weeknight staple. But when the butter is spiked with plenty of garlic, a jolt of curry powder and piquant fresh ginger, then brightened with fresh herbs, it becomes a superb, company-worthy dish that still cooks in under 10 minutes flat. Use your favorite fish here; any mild fillet will allow the buttery sauce to shine.
