Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 pounds boneless and skinless cod fillets (4 fillets (each about 5 ounces))
1/2 teaspoon salt (divided)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (divided)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 large garlic clove (minced)
1/2 cup heavy cream (whipping cream)
1/3 cup low sodium vegetable broth (or chicken broth or seafood broth)
1.5 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (or 1 to 1.5 teaspoons dried dill or dill weed)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
Lemon wedges (for serving (optional))

Steps:

  • Pat cod fillets dry of excess moisture with paper towels and season with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a 12-inch non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
  • Place cod fillets in the pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes on one side.
  • Carefully flip the cod fillets to the other side and continue to cook for another 3 to 5 minutes or until cod is cooked through, is opaque and flakes easily with a fork (insert the tines of a fork into the thickest part of the fish at an angle and twist gently; it should flake easily). Time may vary, depending on the thickness of your fillets.Note: Be gentle flipping, especially if using super fresh fish, as the fillets are quite delicate.
  • Once fillets are done, carefully remove with a spatula, transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • Add garlic to the pan and cook, stirring often, for 1 minute.
  • Pour in heavy cream, broth and remaining 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and black pepper.
  • Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, for 4 to 5 minutes or until the sauce has reduced/thickened and coats the back of a spoon when you draw your finger through it. Taste for seasoning and add more, if necessary, to taste.
  • Once sauce has thickened to your liking, stir in dill, lemon juice and lemon zest.
  • Pour sauce over fish and serve with lemon wedges (if desired). Enjoy!
