Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 lbs cod (fresh or frozen)*
- 6 Tbsp unsalted butter, sliced
- Seasoning-
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp ground pepper
- ¾ tsp paprika
- Few lemon slices
- Herbs, parsley or cilantro
- Serves: 2-4
Instructions:
- Stir together ingredients for seasoning in a small bowl.
- Cut cod into smaller pieces, if desired. Season all sides of the cod with the seasoning.
- Heat 2 Tbsp butter in a wide skillet over medium-high heat. Once butter melts, add cod to skillet. Cook 2 minutes.
- Turn heat down to medium. Turn cod over, top with remaining butter and cook another 3-4 minutes. Butter will completely melt and fish will cook through. Don’t overcook, it will become mushy and completely fall apart.
- Drizzle cod with fresh lemon juice. Serve immediately.
