Ingredients

  • 2 6- ounce cod filets
  • 2 tablespoons olive or canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • salt and pepper to taste I use about ¼ teaspoon salt; ⅛ teaspoon pepper.

Instructions

  • Heat the oil and butter in a medium skillet over medium heat.
  • Add the cod to the pan when the oil is hot.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Sauté for about 4-5 minutes until the fish is slightly turning brown.
  • Flip the fish to its other side and continue to sauté for 3-5 minutes.
  • The fish should be slightly browned, but still flaky when you test it with a fork.
